| In-class | Reinforce | Learning | Summarizing topics and creating interesting connections with GenAI tools (e.g., Gemini’s multimodal capabilities). | Students apply existing knowledge to pick relevant data and develop a well-structured outline for their presentation using GenAI. | Learners utilize GenAI content creation tools to analyze data, generate new insights, and assess their work. | Students utilize GenAI to publish their work and leverage social networks to gain additional insights. |
| Students utilize GenAI tools to explore diverse perspectives and construct arguments with their peers from multiple angles. | Students share information with classmates using GenAI collaboration tools. | GenAI tools help enhance thinking, writing, sharing ideas in pairs, and discussing prompts. | Advanced students can tutor beginners with GenAI tools, while experienced ones strengthen their mastery, helping to alleviate feelings of loss among all students. | |||
| Engage | Teaching | GenAI enables teachers to create personalized materials and assessments, leading to improved student outcomes. | GenAI can assist teachers in collecting habits, learning preferences, cognitive abilities, and grouping each student according to their specific situations and needs using ChatGPT. | GenAI helps teachers create engaging content and motivate scientific investigation by simulating scenarios and laboratories in different subjects (e.g. STEM). | GenAI assistance delivers personalized information through audio and video discussions with peers and guest speakers, increasing student engagement and interaction. | |
