Using AI to Incubate and Unleash your Creativity

I’m excited to host a workshop at the Dulwich Unconference in Shanghai on using AI to unlock creativity in the classroom. This hands-on session explores how ChatGPT can help educators overcome cognitive blocks and time constraints, enabling them to imagine, ideate, innovate, and incubate new ideas. Stay tuned for updates, as I’ll share key takeaways and my presentation after the event.

Predicting the IB Business Management Paper 1 Case Study

Using AI to predict the IB Business Management Paper 1 case study was a game-changer. I trained ChatGPT with the syllabus and past papers, uploading the IB excerpt and keyword list to generate a full case study and exam-style questions. This method saved time and enhanced student engagement, allowing me to create multiple practice examples that proved both accurate and enjoyable. AI has revolutionized my approach to exam preparation

Beautiful Interactive AI Assisted Displays

I’ve always loved creating visually engaging resources, and now, with AI and Canva, I feel unstoppable. Recently, my colleague and I designed an interactive wall display on economic history using AI for content and Canva for design. We pinned key historical events on a vibrant world map, accessible via QR codes. The final display, which drew positive attention from our admissions team, is a testament to AI's power in education.

Bringing Econ to Life

My colleague and I created an engaging economics top trumps game, featuring real-world policies for IB students. Using AI tools like ChatGPT and Midjourney, we developed and designed 48 cards summarizing key economic events. Canva was essential in producing the final product, resulting in a visually appealing, academically accurate resource. AI saved us hours, enhancing learning while making the process efficient and creative.

Writing another book.

After enjoying the process of writing my first book on questioning techniques in Economics, I decided to create a second volume on differentiation. With ChatGPT’s help, I refined my ideas and produced the book in just one hour. I also explored differentiation strategies for specific student needs, and the results were astonishing. ChatGPT’s assistance made the process quicker and more productive, proving AI’s incredible potential in education.
