Description
A lack of suitable materials in English teaching has always been one of the most challenging issues that teachers face. Textbooks generally provide a consistent framework and bundles of activities that guide instruction, but they are not one-size-fits-all and invariably require alignment to specific classes, which is both time and labour intensive. Incompatibilities between textbooks and student cohorts are numerous, but they are generally rooted in two general domains: vocabulary and grammar incompatibility.
The AI revolution unleashed the possibility to develop teaching materials which support specific curriculums or teaching styles, offering teachers the opportunity to design customised activities based on their course objectives and needs. However, many teachers are still struggling to utilise AI in their work. This workshop, therefore, aims to demonstrate techniques and showcase step-by-step instructions to capitalise on a free AI tool, Poe, to help teachers make highly effective materials. Taking into account the need to generate exercises with matching levels of vocabulary and grammar, the instructions will include suggesting data sources, personalising an AI tool, structuring its knowledge base, and writing prompts. This workshop is suitable for all teachers who want to incorporate AI into their course. Teachers who attend the workshop will come away with tips for using prompts to generate relevant exercises based on a new AI model, enabling them to tailor teaching materials for their specific needs.
