Is ChatGPT the Future of Teacher Burnout Prevention? [SUSTAINABILITY SERIES]

Is ChatGPT the Answer to Solving Teacher Burnout? A Closer Look

Not only do you have to lesson plan, do random administrative tasks, email parents and students, keep up to date on grading, but you have to manage behavior and actually teach. If you're like most teachers, that means you are constantly piled with more and more to do. It can be really overwhelming.

A lot of days you probably don’t have the energy to get it all done. So you leave it all for the next day, starting your day in a tizzy of stress. This means you start the day feeling behind. But what if you had your own personal assistant to make your decision making processes, emails, and lesson plans streamlined within a matter of seconds?

In this episode, we're going to dive deeper into some of the reservations that teachers have about utilizing Artificial Intelligence like ChatGPT, how to get good responses from your prompting of Chat GPT, and my favorite ways to utilize it to reduce teacher burnout, job creep, and decision fatigue. This tool can revolutionize the way we teach, learn, and get stuff done!
