Join Our Exclusive Online Course for Teachers

As part of my work, as a self employed keynote speaker specialising in the future of work, I give 20% of my time to trying to change the world we live in. Either through free talks, subsidized media appearances or helping the UK education system.

Why do I do this?

As many of my nearest and dearest are teachers and work in the education system including my mother and sister. And I know first hand how hard they have worked. And how stressful the world of teaching is.

The world of being a keynote speaker for corporate businesses is much easier.

So I don’t know if you are a teacher or if you know some who is.

If so this summer special edition — is for you and them.

“AI cheating is overwhelming the education system — but teachers shouldn’t despair”

As the summer holidays come to an end, we know teachers everywhere are gearing up for another school year, filled with new challenges and opportunities. That’s why, along with my amazing co-founder Janine Atkin, we are excited to announce something to help through our non-profit AI Teacher Course.

We are launching an online course designed specifically to help teachers harness the power of AI in their classrooms and beyond.

As the new academic year approaches, many teachers find themselves gearing up for the challenges and opportunities that lie ahead. At the heart of these challenges is the growing impact of artificial intelligence (AI) in the classroom.

That’s where we, at the AI Teacher Course, come in with a new online course designed to help teachers not just keep up with AI, but to harness it to enhance their teaching and improve their students’ learning experiences.

Why AI Matters in Education

The rapid integration of AI into various sectors isn’t just changing businesses; it’s reshaping education in profound ways. From automating administrative tasks to creating personalized learning experiences, AI offers tools that can make teaching more efficient and impactful. As I discussed in my recent blog post, universities and educational institutions must adapt to the fast-paced changes AI brings. It’s crucial for educators at all levels to understand how to utilize these technologies effectively.

Our online AI Teacher Course, launching this fall, is designed to equip educators with the practical skills they need to incorporate AI into their teaching. The course covers everything from understanding the basics of AI to applying advanced tools that can save time and improve educational outcomes.

We’re offering a limited waitlist for just 100 teachers, ensuring a focused and personalized learning experience.

The Practical Benefits of AI for Teachers

The beauty of AI is its potential to simplify many aspects of teaching. For instance, AI can help reduce the time teachers spend on grading, giving them more time to focus on developing innovative lessons. It can also assist in tailoring learning experiences to meet the needs of individual students, making education more inclusive and effective.

I’ve shared insights into these possibilities in various discussions and presentations. In my interview on the TES Leadership Forum Podcast, I delved into how AI can revolutionize traditional teaching methods. Further, my appearance on BBC Radio Scotland highlighted real-world applications of AI in the classroom, demonstrating that these aren’t just future concepts — they’re tools educators can use right now.

Preparing for a Future with AI

It’s not just about automating tasks; it’s about enhancing creativity and problem-solving in education. In my YouTube video, “The Role of AI in Future Classrooms”, I explore how AI can support educators by providing new ways to engage students and foster critical thinking skills. These technologies aren’t here to replace teachers but to empower them, making their roles even more impactful.

Moreover, AI offers significant benefits outside the classroom. In the video “How AI Can Enhance Traditional Learning Models”, I discuss how AI tools can be used to prepare students for a digital future, equipping them with the skills they need to thrive in a technology-driven world.
