Artificial Intelligence (AI) is rapidly becoming a practical tool in education, and one of the most accessible options for teachers is ChatGPT. Whether used for planning lessons, generating resources, or offering pupils a new way to explore topics, ChatGPT can add real value to the classroom.

Teachers under time pressure can use ChatGPT to quickly draft lesson plans, suggest classroom activities or even create worksheets tailored to specific learning objectives. For example, a science teacher might prompt it to generate quiz questions on STEM-related topics or write a script for a role-play about climate change.

ChatGPT can also support differentiated learning. With the right prompts, it can produce simplified or advanced versions of the same content to meet the needs of diverse learners. It’s not a replacement for teachers’ knowledge and experience, but it can offer a powerful starting point.

There are also ways pupils can benefit directly. Encouraging older students to ask ChatGPT research questions can help develop critical thinking and digital literacy, provided they are guided on how to assess and evaluate responses.

At Millennium Point, we’re seeing how AI fits into the broader picture of STEM education. Our workshop events explore real-world applications of technology, and we encourage teachers to integrate digital tools into their teaching practice.

Used thoughtfully, ChatGPT can be a valuable ally in making lessons more dynamic and responsive.
