I found the course excellent. The practical components and samples of how to generate resources for the classroom were particularly helpful and I have already began using these in my planning. In particular, I have planned activities that completely cater for the different needs of my class and the range of learners. I have used course overviews to generate differentiated tasks that would otherwise have taken me hours…I would highly recommend this course to anyone interested in AI for teaching and will be taking what I have learnt back to my school staff.
