Using Google Bard to help summarise teaching cues... This time of year we start preparing for Junior Athletics Day and few of us in the Department are expert in Track and Field so sometimes we need a bit of help with cues for students learning a new skill.

Hagley College English Language Learner teacher Sally has been using ChatGPT with her beginner-level adult English class. ChatGPT is an Artificial Intelligence 'chat bot' that produces human-like text-based content.  Sally used ChatGPT to help students create a clear, accurate email inquiring about flights for a fictitious holiday.

Research has shown that online tools such as dictation and read-aloud can support the writing process and benefit students who have learning challenges (MacArthur, 1999) and students who do not (Quinlan, 2004).  Students in a Year 11 Physical Education class were studying a level 1 Achievement Standard which required them to demonstrate interpersonal skills and explain how these skills impact others. In practice, students would participate in a game of Kī o Rahi, and at the conclusion of the game, they would enter their explanation into a Word document within the Assignments section of the class's Microsoft Team. For this trial, students could choose to type their explanation or use the Dictation Tool to speak their explanation into the document. Once the Physical Education teacher had set up the class and all students were clear with the requirements
