Making Your Own GPT Bot
Not only is it really cool to do but there are many implications for education
I'm thrilled to share some groundbreaking news from the ChatGPT universe! The latest update has brought a slew of advanced features, especially for ChatGPT Plus members. Get ready to unleash your creativity because you can now craft your very own custom GPTs! Imagine the possibilities...
Although currently limited to fellow ChatGPT Plus users, the potential applications in education are boundless. This innovation piqued my interest immediately, as I envisioned numerous ways it could benefit students. From focusing on specific research topics to prepping for major exams like SATs, ACTs, APs, and more - the educational landscape is ripe for transformation.
Thanks to the simple instructions from Vicki Davis, the Cool Cat Teacher, creating your custom GPT is a breeze. I took the plunge and designed "Study Buddy." This unique bot is able to help students who are preparing for SAT, ACT, Accuplacer, and AP exams. Picture a tutor and coach rolled into one, offering hints, tips, and practice questions, but never direct answers. It's a perfect blend of guidance and self-exploration.
The innovation doesn't stop there! Many educators, like Dan Fitzpatrick, have contributed to the AI Educators Tools repository, a treasure trove of educational GPTs. Just select 'Free with ChatGPT Subscription' to explore them all. Here are a few standouts:
Digital Escape Room Creator: A tool for teachers to design immersive educational escape rooms filled with challenging puzzles and captivating themes.
