As a teacher, stealing is the best policy! As a teacher, you know what I mean. So many teachers offer free materials, ideas, and strategies on blogs and websites. One of my favorites as an algebra teacher is Math = Love.
As an administrator, work products are not as easily shared. Most likely, it is because many administrators work for districts that create their own materials. Administrators are often provided with rules, policies, letters, etc.
Working in an independent school, those are not readily available or may need to be updated.
Since this was my school's accreditation year, I had a lot of items to gather as evidence. I adapted another school's policy manual (stealing with permission) to my school's needs. I found many things we lacked that would be important if I were to leave. I know what I do, but can the next person in my position have access to it.
So I began working on things that I felt were needed. One was letters in case a staff person died, a student died, or a significant event occurred on campus. I used ChaptGPT to help create those letters and then adapted them. I am a math teacher... writing is only sometimes my best subject. I can talk... lol... but composing takes a little more effort. But AI has helped make those tasks more manageable. Those letters are in the policy manual, so if these events occur, that is the last thing I must consider!
Here are ways ChatGPT answered the prompt: What tasks can ChatGPT help principals complete? I think they are definitely things I will explore. I am wondering if it will create a bell schedule for secondary!?
