Introduction
Two hours. That’s it.
In less time than it takes to grade a stack of essays or plan a new unit, you could learn how to use ChatGPT to make teaching faster, easier, and more creative.
Offered by SchoolDay Academy (powered by Coursera), Innovative Teaching with ChatGPT—led by Dr. Jules White, a nationally recognized AI educator—shows teachers how to brainstorm lesson ideas, personalize instruction, and design classroom activities that wow students.
It’s short. It’s simple. And it just might change how you think about lesson planning forever.
Why This Course Matters
Every teacher wants more hours in the day. This course helps you find them. In only two hours, you’ll master techniques that can save you time every week—while making your lessons more dynamic and personalized for your students.
ChatGPT isn’t about replacing your creativity; it’s about supercharging it. You’ll learn to:
- Generate lesson ideas that reflect student interests.
- Create printable, ready-to-use activities in minutes.
- Adapt content to different ability levels—instantly.
As Heather Sherburn, SDA’s Educational Consultant with 33+ years of experience, puts it:
“This isn’t another PD session to sit through—it’s two hours that give you back dozens.”
If you’ve ever wanted practical, no-fluff training that fits into a busy schedule, this is it.

- Create interactive learning games you can print and play.
- Design fun activities that make vocabulary, writing, or math practice come alive.
