AI for teaching and training

Use AI to plan lessons, adapt material for different learners, make practice questions and give feedback, with your judgment in charge.

For: Teachers, lecturers, trainers, coaches and anyone who designs learning or explains things to others.

1. Lesson 1

   Plan lessons faster

   Get a solid draft plan you then make your own.

   1. Tell an AI assistant your workplace allows (for example ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini or Microsoft Copilot) the topic, the learners' level, the time and the goal.
   2. Ask for a lesson outline with activities and a check for understanding.
   3. Adjust it for your learners and your curriculum.

   Try this at work: Ask for a lesson plan for a topic you teach next week, then change at least three things to fit your learners.

   How to check it: The plan meets your curriculum goal and suits your learners' level.

   Watch out: AI does not know your learners. Your knowledge of them comes first.

2. Lesson 2

   Adapt material for every learner

   Make one text work for different levels and needs.

   1. Paste a text and ask for simpler and more advanced versions.
   2. Ask for a glossary and questions for each level.
   3. Check that facts stay the same in every version.

   Try this at work: Adapt one reading or handout into two levels and check that the facts are identical.

   How to check it: Each version is accurate and right for its level.

   Watch out: Simplifying can introduce errors. Read each version fully.

3. Lesson 3

   Make practice questions and check them

   Create good practice material quickly.

   1. Ask for questions with answers and explanations at a stated difficulty.
   2. Answer every question yourself before using it.
   3. Remove questions with more than one right answer.

   Try this at work: Generate ten practice questions for a topic, answer them yourself, and fix or remove any that are wrong or unclear.

   How to check it: Every question has exactly one correct answer and the explanation is right.

   Watch out: AI answer keys are sometimes wrong. Never use questions you have not checked.

4. Lesson 4

   Give feedback and protect learners

   Save time on feedback while staying fair and safe.

   1. Use AI to suggest feedback against your marking criteria, then edit it.
   2. Never paste learners' names or personal details into unapproved tools.
   3. Keep grading decisions yours.

   Try this at work: Write your marking criteria and use AI to draft feedback on one anonymised piece of work, then edit it into your own words.

   How to check it: The feedback is specific, matches your criteria and sounds like you.

   Watch out: Follow your school's or organisation's policy on AI and learner data.
