Laura has just taken over as history subject leader from September. She has an interest in history but no qualifications, post-16. Her other interest is ICT and particularly the growth of AI. She is keen for her staff to exploit the potential of AI in their history teaching. Sensibly, she has decided to pilot some of her ideas first with her own Y4 class, and one other Y4 class which her like-minded friend teaches. She has been told that the previous year’s Y4 topic on the Anglo-Saxons wasn’t as successful as the other topics so this might be a place to start developing her ideas.
Together with her colleague they went through all the planning stages seeing where they could make the optimum use of AI but also putting up some red flags where NOT to use it or do so with extreme caution. The areas they covered were:
- A.
