The 4-week AI for ELT online course provides a hands-on approach to integrating AI into language teaching. Here’s a concise overview of each week’s activities:
Week 1: Introductions and Engagement Teachers use AI tools to introduce themselves creatively, setting a welcoming and interactive classroom atmosphere.
Week 2: AI for Storytelling and ELT Activities Participants explore AI image generators to create visuals for stories and enhance ELT activities, bringing lessons to life with engaging multimedia elements.
Week 3: Interactive Classroom Tools This week focuses on AI tools that promote interactivity, making classroom activities more dynamic and engaging for students, encouraging participation and collaboration.
