Session: Session 2
Room: Salle 201
Presentation Type:Workshop Presentation
This workshop presentation introduces an innovative approach to leverage ChatGPT as a crisis management tool for pre-service teachers during school placements. The research focuses on providing real-time assistance in classroom management and enhancing professional relationships with mentor teachers. To achieve this, pre-service teachers are guided to insert curated prompts into ChatGPT during course learning activities. The AI-generated responses are discussed and contextualised before they are tested on placement. The workshop will showcase this process, offering a step-by-step demonstration of how pre-service teachers can use ChatGPT for immediate and targeted support. The study addresses the urgent need for timely assistance in managing classroom disruptions and understanding professional nuances. The significance of this research lies in addressing the lack of support for pre-service teachers on placements caused by the inherent difficulty faced by mentor teachers in balancing between coaching and assessment duties. It also highlights the benefits of mediating generational communication differences by integrating cutting-edge technology into teacher education. By minimising the necessity for pre-service teachers to escalate issues to higher management, this research streamlines crisis resolution and enhances the overall placement experience. The workshop aims to guide participants through the process, allowing them to experience firsthand the benefits of ChatGPT in crisis management scenarios. Attendees will engage with suggested prompts, experiencing the platform's effectiveness in providing instant support to pre-service teachers navigating uncharted territories during placements.
