Everyone now has free access to GPT-4o & GPTs. I thought I'd share some GPTs as starting points: 1) Innovator (generates ideas): chatgpt.com/g/g-JaiQEuHRU-in… 2) Intern (AI use cases): chatgpt.com/g/g-hGcvnaT7R-ai… 2) Framework finder (suggests how to solve issues): chatgpt.com/g/g-vZ7SgKBOh-fr…

Quick question, on @NotabilityApp, was there a function to add an audio file as an object on a page? so that you can click on the object then the audio would play? Thanks for any leads, I can't seem to find documentation on this... #EdTech

I've just refreshed our list of AI tools for educators, featuring additions like @HeyGen_Official, @KaiberAI & more! With countless new resources emerging, I'm always on the lookout for valuable tools to support teachers. Have suggestions? notion.so/daltonflanagan/7a8…

Great video from @ASCD with lots of great examples for interactive focus walls that empower students. Love the explicit teaching of Levels of Engagement w/ students so they can own where they are & know we all move through all the levels. ascd.org/videos/show-and-tel…

So after finishing helping a teacher online, I ended with, "Whenever you need help..." Then I had to stop myself... Even more embarrassing, the teacher I was supporting recognized the line... it all came out too naturally.
