This development is big news for educators, who can now use custom AI tools without financial barriers. I reached out to educators around the world on LinkedIn, X , and Facebook to find out how they benefit from GPTs.GPTs allow users with a paid ChatGPT account to build custom AI chatbots for specific tasks.
Andrew Spiece, a computer science teacher at Grand Blanc High School in Michigan, uses GPTs to analyze exam results and generate tailored review materials."I use them daily for myself and other teachers. It's a complete game changer," Spiece shared with me. Jack Dougall, a humanities teacher at Canterbury School in the Canary Islands, uses GPTs for complex coursework elements."I’ve shared GPTs with my students for the Internal Assessment and Extended Essay. The GPTs provide quick answers with page numbers for clarity," Dougall explains.
