What does it do?
The ITC AI Lesson Planner instantly creates targeted lesson plans for Primary, Secondary, and Vocational teachers across any subject or topic. By combining the power of AI with ITC’s trusted teaching resources, it delivers creative, engaging, and curriculum-aligned lesson plans in moments.
Why is the ITC AI Lesson Planner better?
ITC has been designing high-quality teaching and learning resources for more than 20 years—this is our space.
Unlike generic AI tools, the ITC AI Lesson Planner is infused with ITC’s proven strategies and resources, achieving a 90% proficiency rate. This means your lesson plan is practically classroom-ready, requiring only minor adjustments for your context.
In comparison, lesson plans generated by generic AI models typically reach only 60% proficiency—leaving you with significant rewriting and refining to do.
How are ITC AI lesson plans different?
You’ll notice the difference immediately. ITC AI lesson plans include:
Why not just use free AI models?
Generic AI lesson plans have four major shortcomings:
- Objectives that are too broad and unspecific.
- An overreliance on foundation thinking tasks (e.g., state, summarise).
- A lack of scaffolding for cognitive verbs —no aligned thinking tools or cooperative strategies.
- No proven engagement strategies, especially at the start and close of lessons.
As a result, free AI outputs are more like rough drafts that require considerable teacher time to refine. The ITC AI Lesson Planner saves you that time.
Why is the ITC AI Lesson Planner faster?
With generic AI, you need to craft long prompts, avoid hidden traps, and correct for US-based content, year levels, and context.
The ITC AI Lesson Planner makes it simple:
- Just 6 quick fields to complete.
- Easy dropdown menus for faster setup.
- All lesson plans are written for the Australian context.
- One-click options to adapt for low-literacy students or add higher-order tasks.
