GPTZero is an AI detection platform designed to help educators, students, and schools identify AI-generated writing and support academic integrity. Users can paste text or upload documents to receive an analysis of whether content appears to be AI-generated. Additional features include plagiarism checking, writing reports, sentence-level analysis, and tools that help document the writing process. GPTZero offers a free plan that provides limited monthly scanning, making it accessible for occasional classroom use, while paid plans provide higher usage limits and advanced features. As with any AI detection tool, results should be used as one source of evidence rather than definitive proof, and educators should review findings carefully before making instructional or disciplinary decisions.
tag(s): artificial intelligence (335), plagiarism (32), writing (309)
In the Classroom
Bookmark and save this site when checking students' written assignments and as a resource for learning about AI-generated text with students. Ask students to include a copy of a response from GPTZero when submitting written assignments to demonstrate that the response is determined to be written by a human, not a chat tool. If your school or district doesn't have a policy regarding using AI generators, work with your students to create a classroom policy of proper use. For example, share how students can use AI generators to clarify information misunderstandings or learn more about a topic before beginning a writing project. Consider using a screen recorder like Free Online Screen Recorder, reviewed here to create a video sharing examples and ideas on using chat tools and verifying human-created work using GPTZero.Add your comments below (available only to members) | Become a Member

I'm Trying to Love Math is part of TeachersFirst Help! I Lost My Library/Media Specialist series reviewed here and provides book suggestions and activities to encourage interest in math. The background knowledge portion of the article shares some historical perspectives on the evolution of mathematics, beginning with a bone found in the Democratic Republic of Congo over 20,000 years ago. Next, scroll through the activities section to find math-related picture book suggestions and additional ideas for learning about mathematicians through biographies. The extension activity idea shares how to promote interest in math by creating brackets similar to those used with March Madness to determine the most influential mathematician of all time. Content on this site includes correlations to ISTE and AASL standards.

Bookmark this article to save as a resource for incorporating literature into math lessons and engaging students with learning about mathematicians by researching their lives and career paths. Encourage students to think about the many uses of math in their daily lives using FigJam, reviewed here. Create a Figjam slide and ask students to add a sticky note anytime they use math during the day. Extend this activity by adding a slide with columns and asking students to identify the type of math used during their day. For example, create columns that include geometry, measurement, data collection, and numbers. Use this information to create graphs and analyze students' different uses of math throughout the day. In addition to the Data Gif Maker, reviewed here suggested in the article, consider creating graphs and charts using LiveGap Charts, reviewed here to create charts representing data in many formats.Comments
I believe that integration is a marvelous way to help students to better understand math concepts. I have employed the use of integrating Science in my Math classroom and it has enlightened the student's way of thinking. Not only are they able to associate math with shopping, time management and buildings but they see where it can be applied to another subject area.Roxanne, , Grades: 3 - 5

Podcasting has become one of the most powerful and accessible ways for students and teachers to create, share, and connect through voice and storytelling. This collection of free podcast creation tools gives educators and students everything they need to record, edit, and share original audio content without the barrier of cost. Whether a teacher is producing instructional content for students to listen to at home or students are launching their own podcast series to showcase research, share opinions, or retell stories, these tools provide an engaging and authentic avenue for creative expression and communication.
tag(s): podcasts (169)
In the Classroom
In the language arts (or English) classroom, students can produce a literary podcast in which they record book reviews, character analyses, or author spotlights, while social studies teachers can challenge students to create a "news broadcast from the past" in which they report historical events as if they were happening in real time. Science students can record explainer episodes breaking down complex concepts like the water cycle or photosynthesis, and math teachers can have students narrate their problem-solving process step by step, turning abstract thinking into an audible, shareable product. Podcasts also shine during passion projects and genius hour, where students choose a topic they care deeply about, conduct original research, and produce a multi-episode series that can be shared with the school community or a global audience.Add your comments below (available only to members) | Become a Member

If you are still getting familiar with STEM (STEAM or STREAM), learn all about them through the resources in this collection. What we once referred to as STEM (educational curriculum that combines science, technology, engineering, and math) has evolved into STEAM and now STREAM. STEAM includes the original four areas and has integrated art into the mix. STREAM takes it further and adds a layer of reading and writing. You will find helpful information about STEM, STEAM, and STREAM in this collection. In addition, we have curated web resources for all grade levels to help as you plan your activities (lesson plans, interactives, and more).

Parlay Genie uses artificial intelligence to create discussion prompts for any topic or URL. Parlay Genie, a feature of Parlay, reviewed here, generates higher-order thinking questions to develop and encourage deeper thinking among students through round table discussions. Begin by selecting to create a discussion either with your topic or with a URL, choose to make between one and three questions, add the URL or subject, and choose the grade level of your students beginning with 5th grade and going up to higher education. The final step is to generate your prompts with an option to regenerate questions if desired. Registration is not required to create discussion prompts using Parlay Genie; however, creating a free account includes options for sharing discussion questions with your students through the Parlay dashboard.

In the Classroom
Use Parlay Genie to quickly generate discussion questions for whole-class or groups for any topic. Easily differentiate questions for different groups of students by developing questions for different grade levels to match student abilities. If you are not sharing discussions through Parlay, use many digital resources to share questions and gather information from students. For example, engage students in the discussion activity by asking them to share a short response using Vevox, reviewed here. Use the students' responses to generate a word cloud in Vevox to highlight common responses. Then ask students to work in groups that explore the initial responses more in-depth to extend understanding. Have each group work on a collaborative document such as Google Docs or Microsoft Word. As a final project, have student groups share their responses, including additional media resources, by creating a slide presentation with Google Slides, reviewed here, or Microsoft PowerPoint Online, reviewed here.Add your comments below (available only to members) | Become a Member

Use timelines for various classroom activities beyond just sequences of dates and times. For example, engage students in retelling stories by asking them to create timelines that share the series of events or locations found within a novel. Ask students to create a timeline of the growth of plants or step-by-step procedures of a lab experiment. Extend learning by including student-created timelines as part of multimedia presentations shared by creating websites using Carrd, reviewed here, or video presentations made with Adobe Express Video Maker, reviewed here.Add your comments below (available only to members) | Become a Member
