Streamlining Teacher Workflow Using AI

💡 Drafting parent emails

If you need to send an email blast to parents reminding them about an upcoming field trip, parent-teacher conference, or school-wide event, chatbots like ChatGPT can be a huge help. Try a prompt like this: “Draft an email to parents reminding them that the permission slips for the field trip to the Bronx Zoo on April 5th are due on Friday”

💡Creating Assessments

Chatbots can create multiple choice quizzes, open ended questions, essay prompts, vocabulary lists, and a whole host of other common assessment mechanisms. We recommend being specific in your requests, asking for more questions than you want, and editing to suit your needs.

💡Drafting Recommendation Letters

You can input the relevant details about the student, like the context you know them from and which characteristics you want to highlight, and a chatbot will draft a letter that incorporates those details. Then, you just have to edit. *Note: make sure you are protecting student privacy and not inputting personal information.

💡Turning an Outline into prose

If you have an outline of a letter, memo, or article, a chatbot can help you quickly turn your ideas into writing. Again, it’s unlikely the output will be perfect, but making a few edits takes a lot less time than writing a letter from scratch. It can also create a letter template that you can use to plug in the relevant details.
