I’ve trained thousands of leaders on genAI. I’ve never said β€œjust practice.” Because the response is β€œYeah but like how?” Want to *actually* train your team? Three ways to start: (Sign up for more tips like this in my weekly AI Mindset newsletter: lnkd.in/e_z5i5qZ) Listen: Mastering genAI requires new behavior and a new mindset. Telling folks to practice on genAI is like telling your kid to get better at math by practicing math. They already KNOW that's how you get better. What we need is guidance on what that looks like. Let's dive in: +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ 1. Tell your team WHAT to practice. Give them challenges. It doesn’t have to be a work problem - give them creative problems to solve! The weirder the better. Creativity sticks in a way that productivity doesn’t. +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ 2. Get your team talking like humans. Our brains are never going to naturally speak to a computer screen like a human. Put folks together working on generative AI so they maintain a human-like interaction. It helps them treat ChatGPT like another member of the team. +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ 3. Ask it what to ask it. ChatGPT and other LLMs are remarkably helpful when it comes to getting started. Here’s what you do: Have your people open up ChatGPT. Tell ChatGPT something about themselves - a hobby, an issue they’re having, a personal problem, anything. Then ask ChatGPT how it can help them solve that problem. Show your team this is helpful beyond just the scope of work - they’ll never stop using it. +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ These are just some of the fundamentals of how I train companies. Repost β™» if this helps your network master generative AI!

Is the fear of the unknown hindering our learning? We build walls of justification, clinging to comfort instead of truth. Educators face this challenge daily, pushing themselves to question and grow. - Siggy A, Newport Mesa Unified School District

Check out this fantastic Social Studies resource! 🌏✨
Made a @peardeck version of the graphic organizers I shared earlier. Add them into your Social Studies lectures to check for understanding. Drawing Slides = easy for students to add text boxes. You will need the upgraded version of Peardeck. #sschat docs.google.com/presentation…

If you need a simple and very easy to customize template, these planners are a great option for #DistanceLearning #blendedlearning or even for PD sessions. Adapt their colors and change the titles on the labels in a swift! #FREE for #GoogleSlides or ppt slidesmania.com/simple-weekl…

Tip Tuesday! Creating a template for students to complete in Google Slides? Go to View β†’ Master to design the background on a master layout. Close the master and add what you want students to edit on the slide. This prevents students from accidentally changing the background.

Is it time to retire letter grades?COVID-19 has exposed the limitations of many educational structures, including a grading system that has outlived its usefulness. Are K-12 leaders bold enough to make systemic changes? buff.ly/3hzcxXg
