Teacher AI Workshop with Sean Gilligan

Join Sean Gilligan for a practical and thought-provoking Teacher AI Workshop, where educators are introduced to the power and potential of Large Language Models (LLMs) like ChatGPT and Gemini. This hands-on session begins with an accessible overview of how LLMs work and their growing role in education, from planning lessons to enhancing student engagement. Teachers will explore real-life classroom use cases, including how to craft effective prompts for AI tools and how to use AI to generate custom educational images, helping visual learners and enriching lesson materials. Crucially, the workshop will tackle the ethical implications of AI in education—addressing concerns such as bias, plagiarism, student over-reliance, and data privacy. Sean will guide teachers on how to use AI responsibly, emphasising that while AI can enhance productivity, human judgment remains essential. Teachers must still review, verify, and adapt AI outputs to ensure accuracy, relevance, and age-appropriateness. By the end of the session, participants will leave with practical prompts, enhanced confidence in using AI tools, and a clearer understanding of the opportunities and limitations of AI in the modern classroom.
