The tool will help prepare lesson plans in minutes, create tests and assignments, and adapt learning materials for students of different age groups in three languages.
«The tool will help teachers explain complicated topics in class in simple language, use real-life examples and turn lessons into discussions or research work,» the ministry noted.
ChatGPT may also assist teachers in developing assessment criteria, analyzing student work, and preparing personalized feedback.
