Artificial Intelligence is becoming more and more part of everyday life, and education is no exception. From helping teachers save time to offering students more <\/span>personalized ways to learn<\/span>, AI can be a valuable tool in the classroom. But to make the most of it, teachers need to understand how it works and how to use it responsibly.
<\/span><\/span>
This was the focus of the course <\/span>\u201cChatGPT and AI for teachers: Artificial Intelligence in schools and education\u201d<\/span>, which took place in <\/span>Porto from May 18th to May 24th, 2025<\/span>. The course brought together teachers from several European countries: <\/span>Irma Bierbaumer<\/span> from <\/span>GRg Albertgasse<\/span> in Austria, <\/span>Timo Niemimaa<\/span> from <\/span>Vammalan lukio<\/span> in Finland, <\/span>Amandine Chochois<\/span> from <\/span>Coll\u00e8ge Lyc\u00e9e La Mennais<\/span> in French Polynesia, <\/span>Ana Isabel Rodr\u00edguez Gonz\u00e1lvez<\/span> from <\/span>CEPA Castillo de Almansa<\/span> in Spain, <\/span>Teresa Casa<\/span> from <\/span>IPSSEOA Giovanni Falcone Giarre<\/span> in Italy, and <\/span>And\u017celika Pach<\/span>, <\/span>Dorota Sudo\u0142<\/span>, and <\/span>Beata Karpa\u0142a<\/span> from <\/span>Szko\u0142a Podstawowa nr 1 w Tarnowie<\/span> in Poland.<\/span><\/span><\/div>\n

After some cultural and networking activities on Sunday, the week started on Monday with a welcome session and some first thoughts about AI in schools. Teachers used <\/span>interactive tools<\/span> to share their ideas and expectations. They also got an introduction to the main themes of the course and discussed how AI is already starting to change the way we teach and learn.
<\/span><\/span>
On Tuesday, the group focused on <\/span>how to communicate effectively with AI<\/span>. This included learning how to write clear and specific prompts to get the best possible answers from AI tools like ChatGPT. They tried different examples and saw how small changes in their wording could lead to very different results.
<\/span><\/span>
Wednesday was all about practice. Teachers worked on more <\/span>advanced prompting tasks<\/span> and also talked about some of <\/span>the risks that come with using AI<\/span>, such as bias, privacy, and the need for rules to make sure these tools are used fairly and safely in schools.
\u200b<\/span><\/span>
On Thursday, participants explored a variety of <\/span>digital tools that use AI to support teachers<\/span>. These tools can help with planning lessons, creating materials, or making classes more interactive. Teachers discussed how they might use some of these ideas in their own schools.<\/span><\/span><\/div>\n
