I love that the tech giants like Google and Adobe are offering free courses for educators. So many educators could benefit from the use of generative AI but are not comfortable with how it can be used, why it should be used and how to protect student data and the cheating/plagiarism that is often associated with AI. Both of these courses are short and did I mention...FREE! I think they would be a great way to introduce school administrators and teachers to AI and hopefully encourage them to start using the tools we have at our fingertips.

It is important to take advantage of resources that can add to your skills as an educator. AI literacy is a hot topic for me at the moments. I wanted to share that there are resources out there that we don't have to pay for such as what Google and Adobe have to offer.
Today we’re introducing new technology to help researchers identify content created by our tools and joining the Coalition for Content Provenance and Authenticity Steering Committee to promote industry standards.
Jeanna Martinez's insight:
Artificial Intelligence is here to stay and it is important for us as educators to recognize how to utilize it in a responsible manner and teach our students to use it responsibly as well. AI can be used in a way to deceive people as well as create content that is not authentic. Teaching users of AI to ensure that what they create when it comes to images and audio is authentic and quality content is such an important key. This article discusses how OpenAI, the company who released ChatGPT, is addressing these important issues.
With Khanmigo for Teachers, K-12 educators can spend less time prepping lessons and more time with students. Here's how to sign up.
Jeanna Martinez's insight:
I am a huge fan of all things free for educators and I have explored some of the features that Khan Academy has for teachers but I am new to their artificial intelligence features. Khan academy has recently launched an amazing free platform that will help not only students but teachers provide support, develop lessons and create lessons that can engage students and save teachers time.
There are a lot of free features with this platform but if you want to explore the paid features it is not super expensive. Khan Academy and Microsoft have always been very supportive of educators and according to this article, they will continue to be that way going forward.
In this article, we will discuss the best practices for using AI avatar generators with the help of machine learning and AI Technology.
Jeanna Martinez's insight:
Artificial intelligence avatar generators is a faucet of AI I have not yet explored. This article is a great read for someone like me who would like to delve into avatar generation. There are legal and ethical implications that I would have never even considered before finding this article.
I can also see how students might use avatar generators when creating presentations. Many students have fears and anxiety over the idea of presenting. Having the ability to use an AI generated avatar that has traits of the students but has been created by the students might help give them confidence and increase buy in and engagement.
The world's leading artificial intelligence companies pledged at the start of a mini summit on AI to develop the technology safely, including pulling the plug if they can't rein in the most extreme risks.
Jeanna Martinez's insight:
The risks and fears surrounding artificial intelligence have been around as long as AI has been a mere idea. The major AI companies like Meta, Google and Open AI are fully aware of these fears and, according to this article are actively working to ensure the safe use of artificial intelligence. This most definitely translates into the world of education using generative artificial intelligence.
It is important for us as educators who are using artificial intelligence and helping students use and understand how to safely use generative AI programs to follow what big tech companies are doing to ensure safety for AI users.
Need a math tutor? Just share your screen with AI and it'll see exactly what you're working on. Meet OpenAI's latest innovation.
Jeanna Martinez's insight:
GPT-4o is just the latest in artificial intelligence innovation. The applications of this technology are just being unearthed and its benefits to both teachers and students is groundbreaking. This technology can help learners prepare for interviews, study for tests and even have "debates" with its users. I know there are still some fears out there about this new technology but it is here and the more we as educators learn about it and the more comfortable we are with it the less scary it might be.
Gates believes AI tutors could revolutionize how students learn.
Jeanna Martinez's insight:
Bill Gates is weighing in on the topic of artificial intelligence in education. According to the article he is a big fan of the founder of Khan Academy, Salman Khan. The article focuses on the book recently released by Khan entitled "Brave New Words: How AI Will Revolutionize Education (and Why That's a Good Thing)" . Gates believes this book is a must read for anyone who is in the Education field.
We are quickly moving toward the idea that education and technology go hand in hand and educators are embracing concepts like artificial intelligence. AI is something that we need to learn to utilize and not be afraid to let our students utilize it as well.
As districts navigate the post-COVID landscape, reimagining summer school as a comprehensive educational recovery initiative is a necessity.
Jeanna Martinez's insight:
This is a really great article outlining some of the applications for AI in designing and planning for summer school. Students who have to attend summer school for academic or attendance purposes are often some of the students who are the least engaged when it comes to academics. As stated in the article, being able to tailor a lesson for the individual interest of a student will very likely increase their engagement and that will lead to a much higher chance of mastery. The example in the article stated that while the student may not like geometry a lesson in geometry centered around his favorite sport will improve the chance of success.
The other side of summer school that is very important to address is SEL and mental health of the students. The article also discusses how AI can help teachers and administrators with that aspect of education as well.
Common Sense Media helps kids thrive in a world of media and technology through ratings, reviews, and information. Find our press releases here.
Jeanna Martinez's insight:
Although this article is detailing a tool that is really designed more for students and their families rather than teachers, I feel like it is a very relevant article to include. Many parents and guardians struggle to find quality materials they can use at home to support and supplement the education their children are getting at school. Teacher can, however, use the technology as well.
Common Sense Media, a child and family advocacy group is partnering with Open AI to help provide materials that are quality, relevant and family friendly.
Sal Khan, the founder and CEO of Khan Academy, thinks artificial intelligence could spark the greatest positive transformation education has ever seen. He shares the opportunities he sees for students and educators to collaborate with AI tools -- including the potential of a personal AI tutor for...
Jeanna Martinez's insight:
This is a really good TED talk on how artificial intelligence can benefit teachers and students while not just giving the answers to the students. I really like the KHAN Academy bot tutor he discusses. The discussion between the student and the bot is also recorded and viewable by the teacher. This allows each student to have their own dedicated "tutor" who is available 24/7. The tutor will not give the answers if asked but will provide guidance and help the student get to the answer on their own. I have not used Khan Academy much but thank to this TED talk I realize that it is much more than just videos. The debate feature and the ability to ask the bot questions and get answers from the voice of a particular person (scientist, historical figure, author, etc.). The writing feature and reading comprehension tools allow students to enhance their writing skills and reading comprehension in ways they have never before had the ability to.
Khan academy AI also has features for teachers. Going into teacher mode gives the teacher the ability to have some guidance on how to teach a particular concept and help create lesson plans for the teacher.
In this episode, Luis Serrano and I dive into the transformative impact of AI on education, forecasting a radical shift in how future generations learn and think. ► Luis' website: https://serrano.academy/ ►Twitter: https://twitter.com/Whats_AI ►My Newsletter (My AI updates and news clearly...
Jeanna Martinez's insight:
This podcast with Luis Serrano and Louis-Francois Bouchard about AI's Role in Education is a good for anyone who is in education. AI is something that is here and it isn't going anywhere anytime soon. Many educators are uncomfortable with AI simply because it is so new and we don't fully understand what it can and can not do. According to the podcast, this ever expanding technology is drastically shifting how people learn and how people think. I thought it was a good podcast, however, as a very visual learner I struggle with a tool that is strictly audio without a visual component. I did listen to it on my computer which definitely helped.
These tips for creating Do Now activities using AI can save you time and produce just the right relevant, quick activities.
Jeanna Martinez's insight:
This article gives some great insight into using generative AI like chatGPT to create "Do Now" activities or bell ringers. I love the idea of starting the "chat" by indicating your role (8th grade science teacher), the goal (kick off a new lesson on...), the task (be specific on the type of activity or activities) and extra information (adding this will tailor the AI's replies to better fit what you are wanting to create). I like that the author give examples of how to start the chat and includes some of the benefits of using generative AI in the classroom and in your planning.
Curriculum and Lesson Plans to answer our anchor question: “What is AI?” for all grade levels. Our lesson plans are designed to cover essential questions about AI, safety, and ethics for grades K-12. We offer options for full-day activities as well as shorter 45-minute lessons.
Jeanna Martinez's insight:
This is a link to a great collection of resources for teachers in a wide variety of content areas. The lessons come in a range of academic levels as well. The source of the lesson and the grade level are identified and the lessons are grouped by approximate time for implementing the lesson. This would be a great resource for teachers who are just starting to dabble in AI in order to get an idea of how others are using it in their classrooms. Even if you don't find a lesson you can directly use, you can get inspiration and ideas from viewing work others have created.
I love that the tech giants like Google and Adobe are offering free courses for educators. So many educators could benefit from the use of generative AI but are not comfortable with how it can be used, why it should be used and how to protect student data and the cheating/plagiarism that is often associated with AI.

Khan Academy’s AI Chatbot, Khanmigo, has been having a difficult time getting a real foothold in schools (at least, from what I read), so, today, they announced that they are making it…...
Jeanna Martinez's insight:
I have said it before and I will say it again, I am a huge fan of any big tech company that offers its services to teachers for free. Khan Academy has been a huge resource for teachers when it comes to video tutorials but they have recently released a chatbot feature and tools that seem to align with the magic school AI platform and I am here for it!
I have not explored the Khan Academy AI features to the extend that I have Magic School AI but what I have seen I really like so far. I will most definitely continue to check out what Kahn Academy has to offer teachers and students and am excited to see what they have to offer.
DALL-E is one of the most popular AI image generation tools. With a few simple tips, you can create a stunning array of images.
Jeanna Martinez's insight:
Tech giant Open AI who is behind chatGPT has developed one of the most popular artificial intelligence image generating tools available. I is easy to use and has far reaching applications in the business world, medical world, artistic world and most importantly (in my opinion at least) the educational world. This could be a great tool for teachers who are developing presentations and lessons but need images to better engage their learners.
According to the article, DALL-E is as easy as typing "create an image of a blue whale leaping out of the ocean". DALL-E will create the image, from there you can modify the image as needed to better fit your presentation or project.
Although ChatGPT became readily accessible to the public back in November of 2022, we are still in the early days of exploring and understan...
Jeanna Martinez's insight:
I love that schools and districts around the world who are using artificial intelligence are freely sharing their policies and guidelines. This article is a great resource for district leaders who don't yet have policies and guidelines in place for their teachers and students. Generative AI is such a brand new tool for school districts many of them have not had the time to write policies. Luckily there are school districts who have been at the forefront of AI use and policy creation and many of these districts are sharing what they have learned and created.
My school district is a very small rural district and I am one of the first teachers in my district to dive into using AI for myself and my students. This type of guidance from other schools can help districts like mine become more comfortable with the use of AI within the district.
55% of teachers say they miss school due to burnout, a new survey contends. Artificial intelligence can fix that.
Jeanna Martinez's insight:
There is no doubt that generative artificial intelligence has a place in education and this article shows how much of a direct correlation there is with the use of AI and the decrease in teacher burn out. AI is fun and it is a way to help teachers complete some of the mundane tasks of teaching with much less effort and stress. AI can also be used with students to increase excitement, engagement and rigor. I have been using AI for several months now and every time I discover something new that it can do I get excited all over again. Even something as boring as writing emails has become more fun because of AI.
Modern technology and reading apps are shaping modern literacy. We can now say goodbye to one-size-fits-all reading solutions.This article uncovers the tailored experiences and barrier-breaking capabilities that digital reading platforms provide, welcoming a diverse array of readers into a new era...
Jeanna Martinez's insight:
Technology, especially the evolvement of artificial intelligence, has changed the face of reading for today's students. What started with customizable reading formats (font size, color, digital tools, etc) has now evolved into text-to-speech as well as reading tools to help you better comprehend what you are reading and assess your students level of comprehension. The article also discusses some of the top reading apps available and gives some thoughts on each of them.
See how educators use ChatGPT and generative AI tools in curriculum planning and assessment, and guide students to use these powerful tools with caution.
Jeanna Martinez's insight:
This link leads to 3 different articles on AI and education. The article that I thought was the most interesting and helpful was the article outlining 6 productivity products every educator should know about. There were a couple on their list I have not explored and will definitely put them on my to do list. I find that most educators want to use technology but wading through the sea of options can be overwhelming. Having a short but effective list of tools like the one addressed in the article would be the perfect place for any educator to get started.
The other two articles were specifically for math and AI literacy. Both of these topics are important as well especially AI literacy!
Explore the power of LOVO AI's voice generator, Genny! With over 500 voices in 100 languages, create engaging videos effortlessly.
Jeanna Martinez's insight:
LOVO AI has come out with a voice generator and video editor that could prove to be a great addition to any teacher's toolbox. This voice generator has a wide variety of human-like voice options in over 100 languages. Their tools can also help with generating scripts and improving the content and professional look and feel of your presentations. They do not appear to have a free version which might give some educators pause to dive into it, especially if their primary reason for creating content is strictly for their classroom. Many educators, however create content for conferences and professional development and in these cases I can see where the financial investment might be worth it.
Libby and Owen speak with Peter Foltz about his work at the intersection of cognitive science, AI, and education over the past few decades.
Jeanna Martinez's insight:
I find the evolution of AI to be very interesting. In this podcast the host talk to Peter Foltz about his work in technology and education over the past several decades. Starting in the 90s, he developed systems to automatically grade essays which at the time, was very early AI technology that allowed students to receive immediate feedback and freed up time for teachers.
More recently Peter and his team have been working on using text-to-speech AI to help evaluate, support and guidance for students during group work. I also really like that Peter and his team acknowledge the importance of including teachers and students when designing their systems.

It is very user friendly and has a lot of features that can make your life as an educator easier. ChatGPT memory is a feature available to pro users that can help you keep up with important dates, events and schedules. I only have used the free version of ChatGPT but after watching this tutorial I may consider trying the pro just to see if having the memory feature would be worth the money.
Should we emphasize teacher choice in classroom resources, or are students better off when district leaders play a more hands-on role?
Jeanna Martinez's insight:
Although this article is not directly addressing Artificial Intelligence I feel like it is a great addition to this topic. This article discusses the struggle between district or state mandates and teacher choice when it comes to technology. This article is more of a general discussion on technology including apps and programs. It also delves into how Covid and the rapid transition to online learning that we all experienced and how that changed the relationship between technology and education. I believe that AI is the "next new thing" and there will be some push and pull between teachers and district or state requirements. As a teacher I wish we were given more of a voice when it comes to the things we can use in our classrooms but I do see the importance of technology specialists regulating and monitoring the programs and apps for effectiveness and usability.
