AI practice for teachers
Short exercises for school teachers, tutors and lecturers who want AI to save time without lowering the bar.
Hi, I'm Kit. These exercises come from a teacher's week: lesson plans, worksheets, report comments and that essay that doesn't sound like your student. Each takes a few minutes, and I'll keep your ticks in this browser.
Who it's for
- You plan lessons, write worksheets and mark late into the evening.
- You've tried a chatbot and want to know where it helps and where it slips.
- You want to protect student data and handle AI use in homework fairly.
