In this episode of NACCTEP Now we hear from Dr. Andy Torris, education professor at Warner Pacific University in Portland, OR as he discusses the use of large language models, generative AI, and AI in education. Dr. Torris shares how he introduces the use of AI to the teacher candidates in his classes to assist them in creating lesson plans as well as to create example classrooms they can teach to. He advises that "you can't leave your mind at the door when you're using these things," and favors the free site MagicSchool.ai that has over 50 AI tools specific to education to get started with.
