Last week, educators from across Singapore gathered at Dulwich College for the AI Essentials for Educators workshop, led by Andrew Mowat. This hands-on session helped teachers build confidence in using AI, understand its role in education, and explore practical applications for the classroom.
The workshop covered key areas, including effective AI prompting, research tools, AI-powered lesson planning, and content creation. Participants worked with ChatGPT, Claude, Perplexity, and AI image generators, developing skills they could immediately apply to their teaching.
Many attendees found the session highly valuable, particularly in improving their prompting skills and understanding AI’s potential. One participant shared, "I have definitely learnt more about writing good prompts and have the confidence to experiment." Another noted, "I love the new tech I can implement and new resources I can share with colleagues."
A huge thank you to Andrew Mowat for leading this insightful session and to all the educators who took part. As AI continues to evolve, it’s clear that teachers are eager to explore its possibilities and bring new innovations into the classroom.
