Description:

As we prepare scholars for life after high school, we know that technology will play an important role in college and careers, and specifically in STEM careers. A rapidly emerging technology is Generative Pretrained Transformer (GPT) technologies such as ChatGPT from OpenAi, or Microsoft's Bing Copilot which uses ChatGPT 4 and Dall-E image generation technology. Another teacher tool available to FWPS staff is Colleague AI. "Colleague integrates cutting-edge AI technology with knowledge in effective teaching to curate Open Education Resources. Human domain experts, assisted by our domain-specific algorithms, review lesson materials to ensure rigor, engagingness, and inclusivity." (Colleague AI, August 2024)
