Join us for an inspiring conversation with Josh Amstutz, a high school math teacher from Cincinnati, Ohio, who discovered how to break out of survival mode and maximize professional growth opportunities. After participating in the transformative Transatlantic Outreach Program in Germany, Josh faced a common challenge: how to organize and actually use all the valuable information he'd collected.
His solution? Creating a personalized AI chatbot using Gemini to store, process, and generate classroom materials from his fellowship experiences. Josh shares his four-step approach to effective AI prompting and demonstrates how this technology has saved him hours weekly while helping him implement innovative energy education concepts and wind turbine statistics in his math classes.
Beyond his German fellowship, Josh reveals how he's expanded this approach to create multiple specialized chatbots for mindfulness activities, conference presentations, and more. He'll share a treasure trove of 40-50 fellowship opportunities for teachers and provide practical resources on AI prompting and chatbot creation.
Whether you're struggling to move beyond day-to-day survival or looking to become an innovative leader in your district, this episode offers concrete strategies for organizing your professional growth and maximizing learning opportunities through smart technology.
