MIDDLE AND HIGH SCHOOL UPDATES
CHAT GPT CONTINUED
and educators . There is a risk that sensitive information could be compromised or used inappropriately .
As with any technology , it is important for educators to carefully consider the positives and negatives of using chat GPT in the classroom . While it has the potential to enhance the learning experience and engage students in new ways , it is important to address concerns such as accuracy , dependency , cost , and data privacy . By balancing the benefits and drawbacks , educators can ensure that they are making the most of this technology while also promoting a well-rounded education for their students .
The time that it would have taken me to research all of these points and create this article would have certainly been measured in hours as opposed to seconds . It ’ s easy to see how Chat GPT can be used as a timesaver , as it was for Mrs . Zaya when planning her Disney trip , or for myself when creating an article on the advantages & disadvantages of using this technology . On the other hand , it doesn ’ t take a leap of imagination though to see how students could misuse this technology in the classroom . As this technology is still in its infancy stage , I am very interested to see where it goes in the future . I hope you are too .
THINKING DEEPLY ABOUT TEACHING AND LEARNING rentwood Borough SCHOOL DISTRICT NEWS
At Brentwood High School we ’ re thinking about thinking and how to keep pushing our students ’ learning ! This spring and summer Brentwood educators came together with educators from the Pittsburgh region to learn about Project Zero methodologies for teaching and learning . On May 16th , all High School teachers attended a regional conference hosted by Northgate School District and Remake Learning about “ Thinking and Learning that Make a Difference ”. Educators attended sessions around making thinking visible , teaching for understanding , creating conditions for learning , and developing student agency while networking and gaining ideas from regional colleagues .
From that conference , a group of educator leaders emerged excited to learn more about this work and try out different practices in our classrooms , faculty meetings , and other learning spaces which will continue in the upcoming school year . This summer , two of our administrators attended the Project Zero Classroom conference in Boston , alongside national and international participants , as well as colleagues from the Pittsburgh area . This conference provided strong insights into how to continue to lead this work with our faculty and provided meaningful structures for keeping teaching and learning at the forefront of our schools and our minds in ways that excite and inspire students and teachers . Working with other districts in the area , Brentwood plans to continue to focus on these best practices in education and provide our students agency , engagement , and strong experiences throughout their time in and out of our schools .
