Segment 1: 

Narrative:  Holy Hubs

Segment 2: AI Hubs for Teachers

What are AI Hubs?  

• We are using the term “hub” a little incorrectly here.  An AI hub is a thing in the tech space where AI models can be trained.  
• When we say hub, we mean AI platforms or workspaces that do LOTS of different teacher related things
• Most of these use ChatGPT or something similar in the background.  For example, let’s say you wanted to write a lesson plan … you could get the same results if you just went to ChatGPT and put in a very specific prompt, but Magic School’s lesson plan generator has done that for you.
• Also, Khanmigo uses GPT, but it has been specifically trained on the videos and resources held by Khan Academy.

What are the big ones?

• Magic School
• Some free, some paid
• Khanmigo
• All free for teachers
• Eduaid
• Pay for pro features
• Teachershub.ai
• Free for teachers but they do list limits, no other pricing there
• Teach Mate
• For the Brits!  Some for free, £6.99 per month and goes up from there
• MIT Sloane
• Can’t find a price
• Theres an AI for That
• ***Teacher Server
• Free for teachers
