pppst! Did you know I got that from Gemini too? I used the prompt, "give me a list of specific examples of different ways gemini can be helpful to grade level teachers, exploratory or special classes like music, art, pe, etc, and special education teachers. Please put this in a three column chart with bulleted examples under each heading" and this is what I got!
But the big question - HOW DOES IT WORK?
(let me show you)
I wanted help making sure the content was accessible to you so I wrote this prompt and gave it to Gemini, saying, "can you create a step by step flyer to demonstrate to teachers who have limited knowledge of technology how to use gemini to create materials at different reading levels for their lesson?" and I got this starting point!
Flyer: Gemini: Your AI Teaching Assistant
Want to easily create materials for different reading levels? Gemini can help!
Step 1: Access Gemini
Find Gemini: You can access Gemini through various platforms, such as Google Search or your school's approved AI tools.
Step 2: Start with Your Content
Provide your text: Paste your lesson plan, article, or any text-based material into Gemini.
Step 3: Tailor to Reading Levels
Simplify: Ask Gemini to "simplify this text for a 3rd-grade level." Gemini will rephrase the text using simpler vocabulary and shorter sentences.
Challenge: Ask Gemini to "rephrase this text for advanced learners, adding more complex vocabulary." Gemini will increase the reading level with more sophisticated language.
Step 4: Differentiate Further
Create summaries: Ask Gemini to "summarize this text in 5 sentences." This provides a shorter version for struggling readers.
Generate questions: Ask Gemini to "create 5 comprehension questions based on this text." This allows for differentiated assessment.
Step 5: Review and Adapt
Review: Always review the AI-generated content to ensure accuracy and appropriateness for your students.
Adapt: Make any necessary adjustments to suit your specific teaching style and student needs.
Tips & Tricks
Be specific: The more specific your instructions to Gemini, the better the results.
Experiment: Try different prompts to see what works best for your content and students.
Use for diverse needs: Gemini can also help create visuals, translate text, and provide personalized feedback.
Let Gemini be your AI assistant in creating a more inclusive and engaging learning experience for all students!
Now to make it look cute, take it to Canva and, voila! 🤩
Want a real life "assistant" to help you explore how Gemini can help you enhance YOUR teaching and save you time by working for you, creating the content you need? Just reach out. 😉👏 Or in the mean time, check out this prompt library to help you get started!!
REMINDER! When using prompts, Gemini is a great tool from going from ZERO TO ONE, but I will ALWAYS edit and adjust the content I am given to better support my students and meet my specific needs. The prompt responses are unaltered above to serve as an example of what Gemini can do!
IN ADDITION! When you want a single answer to a question, use a search engine. When you want to collaborate, create, and build something as you go through multiple iterations and adjustments, use an AI tool because you can ask them to continue to refine or adjust in the same conversation thread.
