Opens Your Eyes to a Whole New World

I’ve been teaching for a while, and let’s face it—keeping up with the latest tech can be overwhelming. Which is why AI in the classroom is such a huge game-changer — but also a bit scary.

Which is why I really enjoyed this book. It’s a fantastic resource for teachers looking to make AI a natural part of their classroom without feeling overwhelmed by technical details.

I really liked how it illustrated the real strengths of AI to cut down on teachers’ workloads by simplifying admin tasks like grading and lesson planning. There are also creative ways of using AI to bring lessons to life (like helping students “meet” historical figures through interactive prompts). I also appreciated the sections on the ethical and responsible way to use AI, as well as ways to make sure all students have equitable access — which is crucial in today’s classrooms.

I think this is a great book for any teacher who wants to bring something exciting and fresh into their teaching but may be wary of AI’s learning curve. It’s not only crammed with useful information, it also makes you excited to try out these new tools—and it certainly assuaged most of my fears about AI. This is a definite recommend from me.
