a 27-year-old high school math and science teacher based in Dublin, Ireland, who uses ChatGPT to help her teach. The following has been edited for length and clarity.As a high school math and science teacher, I had a bit of an existential crisis about my job.
When I first used ChatGPT, I treated it as a joke; I asked it to write poems about the Pythagorean theorem and a song about math in the style of Taylor Swift. My students said they enjoyed them, which gave me the push I needed to keep testing it. I also worried that my students would use it to cheat and plagiarize. But then I remembered that students have always been cheating — whether that's copying a classmate's homework or getting a sibling to write an essay — and I don't think ChatGPT will change that.
Still, I understand why some teachers are hesitant about using ChatGPT. Learning how to use a new piece of technology — especially for teachers who didn't grow up with computers in the classroom — can be tough. But I do believe they will find the tool helpful.
Problem is I think Chat GPT wrote this
this is an ai-generated article. you cant fool me.
Hot for teacher
I can tell you that it may be usefull, but leads to deterioration or reduced cognitive processes, and those using it in studies will never be the ones developing something equivalent in the future.
I thought was something relevant but now I know it’s just another one. elonmusk
Cool. My kids are using it for their homework and projects too. 😅
