Why should I use it?
The itc AI lesson planner is your ultimate lesson planner, as it improves and builds upon existing AI content by incorporating the itc thinking tools, cooperative learning tools and resources to produce lesson plans that have the following features:
- Higher-order thinking tasks: You can choose to have higher-order thinking tasks as part of your lesson plan, implementing tasks such as analyse, evaluate, compare, judge, create, assess and justify. You can then support these tasks with the itc cognitive-verb aligned thinking tool templates, sentence starters and assessment exemplars.
- Lesson Intention and Success Criteria: A clear Lesson Intention and Success Criteria for students in line with the latest education research.
- Engaging starts: Starting the lesson with a short, engaging and non-threatening activity that sparks the interest of the students. In many cases, the lesson plan will suggest starting activities that attempt to gauge and activate the prior knowledge of the students, link the new material about to be studied to something familiar to the students and focus the attention of all the students to the topic.
- Thinking tools: The itc AI lesson plans will regularly suggest thinking tools aligned to the task verbs in the lesson plan. This provides the format for students to compile their data and thoughts in a clear and logical format.
- Cooperative Learning: The itc AI lesson planner suggests cooperative learning tools aligned to the lesson plan tasks. The cooperative learning tools include Topic Bingo, Round Robin, Silent Card Shuffle, Think:Pair;Share, 3:2:1:RIQ and 1:4:P:C:R., Judge Jury, Jigsaw and more.
- The Lesson End: The itc AI lesson planner suggests activities for the end of the lesson which aims to consolidate the information being learned.
