Overview
This interactive session dips a toe in the Gen AI waters in relation to designing units of work. Whether you’re an old-school purist, an adventurous techy or just plain curious, we’ll take a look at the role of Gen AI in supporting teachers to create high quality units of work. A brief demonstration, focusing on Wiggins and McTighe’s Understanding by Design approach in combination with the Quality Teaching Model, will provide food for thought as well as some useful tips to guide your AI journey. Bring an open mind with a clear idea of the important concepts you’d like your students to grasp in an upcoming unit of work. Let’s have some fun!
