THANKS VERY COOL GOOGLE I'LL JUST LET THE PLAGIARISM MACHINE THAT TELLS PEOPLE TO EAT GLUE AND BURNS DOWN THE RAINFOREST TO DESIGN MY CURRICULUM
ACTUALLY WE PROBABLY DON'T EVEN NEED TEACHERS WHEN WE CAN JUST SIT STUDENTS DOWN IN FRONT OF A CHROMEBOOK AND FEED THEM AI SLOP ALL DAY AND THEN THEY CAN USE AI TO ANSWER THE QUESTIONS
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
I don't teach K-12, but isn't the main challenge not lesson planning, but like a lot of crowd control. At least like K-9 I imagine it's a nightmare just keeping kids seated and paying attention.
Nope, the classroom part is easy. Even if the kids are annoying, most of them will learn. But most importantly the amount of energy you can spend in each class is capped. It is, at worst, 45 minutes of walking and yelling. And admin very rarely watches the classes. They are out of their element in the classes. They just want to see the lesson plans and their expectations for those lesson plans are infinite and bizarre, 6+ pages per 45 minute class, timed to the minute, all content squeezed into a spreadsheet where most columns only have one word and one column has paragraphs, mandatory template looks like shit so they always have something to complain about.
That's sounds maddening, I go through about a page per 10 mins of lecture time at the college level and that obviously moves through at a faster pace.
Your mileage may vary, but lesson plans ARE classroom management. Yes I've seen classrooms that absolutely refuse to learn or do any work, but most classes will do work if it's engaging. Engaged classes manage themselves. If they have no interest in doing their work or the work is too easy for them or the work is so hard they can't even start it, then they start distracting themselves and others.
Any support or materials that can be offered to teachers make their lives easier and then they can tailor it to their class.
That's fair, but while an LLM might be good at giving you a list of topics, or even a loose script for a lecture, coming up with content that keeps a class of children engaged seems like the type of task it won't currently or ever do reliably.
It would probably be able to do a decent facsimile from all the data it's nicked on what an engaging lesson plan is
Oh yeah obviously AI can't do that for shit. When I mean support or resources, I mean lesson plans and activities that have been designed and tested by teachers then shared with other teachers.
