๐ฌ Large Language Models (LLMs)
AI that creates new content โ not just classifies or predicts.
Essays, lesson plans, emails, quiz questions
Illustrations, diagrams, visual aids
Narration, music, language pronunciation
Explainer videos, animated content
"LLMs are like highly knowledgeable autocomplete systems trained on enormous amounts of text."

Words every teacher should know
โฑ๏ธ 10 minutes
Prompt โ The instruction you give to AI
Context โ Background info you provide
Context Window โ How much AI can "remember" in a chat
Tokens โ Small chunks of words AI processes
Hallucination โ AI confidently giving wrong info
Temperature โ Controls creativity vs accuracy
RAG โ AI using trusted docs before answering
Token Billing โ Why some tools charge by usage
"I teach Grade 8 Science in CBSE. Create a worksheet on photosynthesis with diagrams and fill-in-the-blanks."
โ This prompt has: Role Context Task Format
The more context you provide, the better the output.
The #1 skill that makes AI useful
โฑ๏ธ 15 minutes
"Create a lesson plan on fractions."
"Create a Grade 5 CBSE mathematics lesson plan on fractions. Include learning objectives, classroom activities, group exercises, assessment questions, and differentiation for advanced learners."
๐ญ R โ Role Who should AI act as?
๐ C โ Context Teaching environment, board, grade
๐ T โ Task What needs to be done?
๐ F โ Format How should the output look?
Remember: R-C-T-F = Better prompts = Better outputs
"Make a quiz"

"Make a test" โ Better โ Best! โจ
Use the same prompt on all three tools and compare:
Notice differences in: detail, accuracy, formatting, creativity
What every educator must know
โฑ๏ธ 5 minutes
AI can invent facts, quotes, citations, and even research papers that don't exist.
Always verify!
AI inherits biases from its training data โ cultural, gender, and socioeconomic biases can appear.
Review critically!
Never share student names, marks, personal data, or school-sensitive info with public AI tools.
AI-generated content may resemble copyrighted material. Use it as a starting point, not the final product.
Opportunities, challenges & what teachers can do
โฑ๏ธ 10 minutes
โ ๏ธ No AI detection tool is 100% accurate!
Instead of trying to catch AI use, redesign assessments:
Building a responsible framework
โฑ๏ธ 5 minutes
Week 1: Try one AI tool โ ask it to create a lesson plan
Week 2: Use R-C-T-F to write better prompts
Week 3: Generate a quiz or worksheet for your class
Week 4: Compare outputs from 2+ tools
Ongoing: Share tips with colleagues & build a prompt library
๐ฑ Small steps lead to big transformations!
"AI will not replace teachers. However, teachers who effectively leverage AI are likely to become significantly more productive, creative, and impactful than those who do not.
The goal is not to compete with AI, but to learn how to teach effectively in an AI-enabled world."
