Webinars

Chat GPT and the mathematics teacher, and the mathematics learner

8 July 2024

With Miles Berry

This session explores how Chat GPT, a language model, can support and enhance mathematics education.

We'll delve into the mathematical principles underpinning language models, and demonstrate how maths teachers can leverage this technology to enhance teaching efficiency.

Additionally, we'll discuss how students can use Chat GPT to support their maths learning journey.

The session will also highlight Chat GPT's role in facilitating mathematics, intertwining it with computer programming and data visualisation, showcasing its potential as an educational tool in modern mathematics teaching and learning.

Time: 16:00 - 17:00

In this interactive webinar we will participate together in a range of problem-solving activities, at a range of levels, centred around the Platonic Solids.

As we work on these, we will be motivated to engage in approaches from a range of mathematics, utilising at most KS4 skills.

This webinar will be split into three distinct parts;

1. An introduction to the Platonic Solids and some activities

2. Breakout into groups and explore the activities further

3. Groups share approaches and responses/solutions


When: Tuesday 8th October 2024
