About the webinar
Join us for an engaging and informative webinar designed to explore the exciting role of Chat-GPT in education. We warmly invite you to participate in a collaborative activity, where you'll help create a word cloud by sharing verbs that relate to COMMUNICATION. This interactive start will set the stage for our journey into understanding Chat-GPT.
We'll begin by clarifying what Chat-GPT is and showcasing its key features. Our focus will then shift to discussing the wonderful benefits it offers both teachers and students, enhancing learning and communication in the classroom.
To bring these concepts to life, we'll provide a live demonstration on how to easily sign up, log in, and craft prompts on the platform. We'll conclude with a friendly assessment session using the SLIDO tool, giving you the chance to share your thoughts and feedback.
We are grateful for your interest and look forward to your participation. Please feel free to join us and discover how Chat-GPT can enrich the educational experience. Your input is highly valued, and we encourage you to be a part of this inspiring conversation.
