There is no shortage of articles telling teachers that AI is going to change everything. What there is a shortage of is straightforward, practical guidance on which tools are actually worth your time and how to get started with them quickly.
This playlist is an attempt to fill that gap. It is a collection of short tutorial videos covering some of the most useful AI tools available to teachers right now. Each one is focused on doing something specific and practical, rather than giving a broad overview of what AI might do in the future.
You do not need any previous experience with AI tools to follow along. If you have got ten or fifteen minutes and a browser open, that is enough to get started.
Who Is It For?
These videos are aimed at primary teachers who have heard a lot about AI but are not sure where to start. Each one is self-contained, so you can watch them in any order depending on which tool catches your interest first. They are practical and focused: the aim is to get you doing something useful as quickly as possible, rather than covering every feature in depth.
If you are more experienced with AI tools, there may still be something here worth picking up, particularly the sections on ChatGPT Projects and Gemini Gems, which are newer features that not everyone has explored yet.
The playlist will continue to grow as new tools and features become worth covering. If there is something specific you would like to see a tutorial on, let us know in the comments.
