A worked example
The task
Plan a 45-minute Grade 6 science lesson on the water cycle (example for a fictional organization, for illustration)
What you start with
Act as an experienced Grade 6 science teacher. Context: A 45-minute lesson on the water cycle. 26 students, mixed reading levels. They already know that water can be a liquid, a solid or a gas. Task: Write a lesson plan. Format: Learning objective, a timed schedule (starter 5 minutes, teaching 12, group activity 18, wrap-up 10), materials needed, and one question to check understanding at the end. Limits: Use only well-established facts. Mark anything I should verify with [CHECK].
What you get
Learning objective Students can describe the main stages of the water cycle (evaporation, condensation, precipitation, collection) in their own words. Timed schedule (45 minutes) - 0 to 5 min, starter: ask "Where does a puddle go on a sunny day?" and collect ideas. - 5 to 17 min, teaching: introduce the four stages with a simple diagram, linking each to what students know about liquid, solid and gas. [CHECK: wording of each stage for the Grade 6 curriculum] - 17 to 35 min, group activity: groups of four build a labeled water cycle poster and explain it to another group. Pair stronger readers with those who need support. - 35 to 45 min, wrap-up: each group shares one stage in a sentence; recap the cycle. Materials needed Diagram handout, chart paper, markers, sentence starters for mixed reading levels. Check for understanding "Describe what happens to water from a puddle until it falls again as rain." Facts to verify [CHECK: ensure the diagram shows condensation forming clouds and that precipitation includes rain, snow and hail]
What you check or change by hand before using it
- Check that the timings add up to your real lesson length (5 + 12 + 18 + 10 = 45) - Resolve every [CHECK] item yourself against your curriculum - Change at least one activity so it suits your room, class and resources - Decide how you will check understanding, and whether the question fits your students

Questions
What if the AI states something wrong to my students?
It can. The course teaches you to check content against a trusted source and curriculum before it reaches learners, and covers accuracy and bias in a full lesson.
Is student data safe to use in AI tools?
Module 5 has a lesson on student data privacy and security so you know what never to paste and how to anonymize what you need.
Does the course address cheating and academic integrity?
Yes, there is a lesson on academic integrity and responsible learning, and a project to write your own classroom AI guideline.
Is there practice with feedback conversations?
Yes. A simulation lets you practice a constructive feedback session, and each module ends with a project.
Do I need a paid AI tool?
No. The exercises work with a free account of ChatGPT, Claude or another assistant, or the tool your school has approved. You paste the prompts from the lessons into the tool you already use, so the course does not depend on any one product.
Is this a subscription?
No. You pay $29 once and keep access to the course for life.
Do I need an account before I buy?
No. Enter your email at checkout and we create your account for you. If you already have an account, log in first and the course is added to it.
How do I get the certificate?

Can I get a refund?
All sales are final, except for technical or billing errors such as being charged twice for the same course. The full wording is in our Refund Policy.
Can I buy all the courses together?
Yes. The Pro Bundle ($159) gives you every course, and its price goes down by $29 for each course you already own.
