AI for Educators: Learning Strategies, Teacher Efficiencies, and a Vision for an Artificial Intelligence Future Paperback – 16 March 2023

This book makes so many rational points that it helps ease the pressure I fell as a older teacher with years of successful experiences. While I remain skeptical, I am more willing to participate and experiment with AI as a tool. Also as the book makes clear, whether or not I utilize this, to whatever degree I choose, the students are looking at this as a part of their reality in classes from here on out. Work with AI with that in mind.

This book is superbly written and if full of practical ideas for educators. For anyone feeling overwhelmed about generative artificial intelligence and the impact it will have on educators and students, this book is a must read.

It is an excellent book to be used by teachers in the classrooms with practical tips that raise the quality of teaching.

This book is only useful if you have no idea about AI. If you’ve even read a half decent blog about AI and/or ChatGTP then you’d know as much as the author. Every chapter ends with an advert for the authors website. The website is more about a breakdown of each chapter. I’m glad I got the kindle version rather than paying for the hardback.

I am no stranger to author Matt Miller and the Ditch That Textbook line of books. When I first picked up the book Ditch That Textbook I was surprised that it was more than just ditching homework, it was rethinking how we teach! This new book has the same vibe. It is more than learning how to use AI and what AI is, it is rethinking it as a tool to help our students. Matt’s timely, honest, and optimistic guide is just what we all need to get started with AI and get excited on how it can be used in the classroom. I know Matt worked fast to make sure this book was current, however, I think this guide is timeless because we are always going to need tomorrow glasses! Thanks Matt!
