Description
Nowadays, most people are overwhelmed by the amount of information available, but when you’re young and you’re still developing learning habits, it may become even dangerous.
Indeed, more and more students struggle with retaining information, understanding complex concepts, and staying engaged, and too often, teachers have a hard time supporting them.
This course will provide educators with practical tools to enhance student development, helping them to become more independent learners.
Participants will be introduced to key learning strategies, like elaboration and visualization, integrated with generative AI tools.
This way, teachers will be able to create engaging, personalized learning materials that enhance student comprehension, retention, and engagement.
During this course, participants will discover how to use AI-powered tools to help their students understand new concepts, picture complicated ones, and remember things better via personalized quizzes and flashcards.
They will also learn how to implement these strategies in their classrooms, to provide a more effective learning experience for every one of their students.
By the end of the course, participants will have developed practical skills in using generative AI to support student learning, and they will be able to use personalized strategies aimed at a more profound understanding, retention, and improved learning paths for their students.
