Conker.AI : AI tool to help with creating assessments

 What is it? Conker.ai is an Artificial Intelligence website that was created by Mote and is currently in Beta form (meaning it will just be getting better the more it is used). Conker is “the fastest way to create engaging quizzes and formative assessments for your classroom.” 

  • The quizzes and assessments can then be easily turned into a Google Form quiz ready for you to give to your students, saving you a lot of time. 

  • Assessments types include fill in the blank, general quiz or reading comprehension. 

  • It can be used for grades K-12.

How do I use it? It is easy to set up with your Google credentials and a few questions.

  • If you touch one of the colored words, a drop down menu will appear letting you make the choices you wish such as changing the word quiz to fill in the blank, the number of questions, and grade level.

  • You can enter in a single keyword and it will search the website to find questions and answers or you can upload your own source material (as of right now, you can only upload copy and pasted text but soon you can insert a url or file)

  • Next, hit generate. To verify the answers, it provides a google search link to help you under each question

  • If you are happy with the results, you can select Assign or Export to export it as a Google Form.

  • After you have exported it as a Google Form, you can make any changes you want before you assign it to your students.

Using AI to find resources

  Earlier this past week, I was asked by Mr. Morris to find resources for his class over Ancient Africa. The first place I started was not with a Google search. Instead, I turned to ChatGPT . My first query was pretty straightforward. I simply stated I wanted 6th grade resources for Ancient Africa. It did provide some links to a few websites but it was pretty underwhelming. I tried a few more queries before I decided to try the search with Perplexity AI . Not only did Perplexity show six different websites to use but it broke it down better than ChatGPT. In fact, it recommended a new search query under Related that showed some activities I could use as well. Finally, I tried the Bard AI (I had to use my personal G account to access Bard). I found the results on Bard to be pretty much the same as on ChatGPT. Just goes to show why I like Perplexity AI so much! For more information on AI tools teachers need to be aware of, take a look at Matt Miller’s article titled 30 AI tools for t...

Mathigon/Polypad is an interactive learning platform designed for mathematics. “ A completely new content format, combined with an innovative new curriculum, makes learning more personalized and fun than ever before: we call it the “Textbook of the Future”. Highly interactive content allows students to actively “explore and discover.” How much does it cost?

QuestionWell AI

  I first learned about QuestionWell from a blog post by Richard Byrne. You can locate that post here .  What is it? QuestionWell is an AI tool developed to help teachers create reading comprehension and guided questions over a topic, a large chunk of text or an online article. The questions can then be saved to a Word document or saved to one of the popular quiz apps such as Kahoot or Blooket.  Educational Uses? I found this AI tool to be incredibly easy and useful. The prompt I used was simply to ask it to generate questions about emerging technology for 9th grade students. I did not enter any text or even a link to an article found online. With only the bare minimum, it was still able to generate 6 essential questions and 19 general questions. I love the ability to filter the questions by learning objectives. I appreciated the ability to easily select all of the questions or only the select few I needed. I then tried the same AI tool using a link to a news article...
