Today I am harnessing all the AI #EdTech I can. @magicschoolai generated the essay prompt, @ChatGPTapp graded the essays, and @Schoology automatically imported scores/data. What normally took days, got done in 30 minutes.

Likely? Missouri Compromise and Dred Scott. Inevitable? Lincolns election in 1860.

We finished up with #collaborative paragraph writing! Each group created a thesis then S’s used their doc to add evidence. Great way to scaffold #DBQ writing. #EduProtocols #HistoryEd
