Khanmigo: Teacher Activities Overview


3m read
·Nov 10, 2024

This is Kigo, an AI-powered guide designed to help all students learn. Kigo is not just for students, though; teachers can use Kigo too. In fact, when teachers access Kigo, their device will transform into the teaching assistant they've always wanted.

Let's take a look. Upon entering Kigo's dashboard, you're able to see all of the wonderful things that Kigo can do. Kigo can give you a class snapshot into your students' activity from the last seven days. It can summarize your students' chat history so you can see what they've been up to. Need help with an upcoming lesson plan? Kigo can help with that too!

Feeling iffy about a lesson that you're about to teach? Kigo's "refresh my knowledge" will help you prepare for it. I can use Kigo to help me come up with a creative lesson hook that gets my students excited about an upcoming lesson. Kigo can help me write learning objectives for that unit as well. Well, Kigo can help me create a writing rubric for my students' next essay or assignment, and Kigo can write unique, thought-provoking exit ticket questions that I can use as checks for understanding.

I can also use Kigo to collaborate with my students to create a fun class summary poem that I know they'll love. Ready to see Kigo in action? Great! Me too. I'm going to start off with "refresh my knowledge" because next week I'm covering a unit on the parts of speech, and it's been a little while.

So I'm just going to type in "parts of speech." I also have to let Kigo know my grade level: seventh grade. Amazing! With one click of the button, Kigo is able to give me an overview of the five major concepts and then offers to support me a little bit more by offering to quiz me on the topic and learn through conversation.

Now I want to come up with a creative lesson hook for my students. So we are going to cover nouns. These are good, but I would like to make it funny. So Kigo, can you make it funny?

Absolutely! Humor is a fantastic way to engage students. I couldn't agree more. Thank you so much, Kigo! Now could you help me create a lesson plan on nouns to introduce the topic to my students? I would love one on introduction to nouns. And again, with one click of the button, Kigo creates an incredible lesson plan for me.

Wow, this is incredible! Okay, can we please print this? This is amazing. Kigo included the learning objectives, the activities that my students are going to do, the exit ticket, key terms, the resources that I'm going to need, and then a lesson summary. This is absolutely incredible!

In just a few minutes, Kigo, my new teaching assistant, has saved me so many hours of planning time to help me create a quality lesson plan for my students. Incorporating Kigo into the classroom is going to be a game changer for teachers. Kigo's insights and suggestions are going to enhance classroom learning and make teachers' lives easier by saving them so much time, so that we'll have the ability to focus on what's important: our students.

Thank you, Kigo!
