Ed Leaders: Here’s the five-point checklist every CIO should move on today with the new ChatGPT for teachers: 🔷 Set up your ChatGPT Enterprise Workspace (5 minutes). This is how you manage your district environment. Directions: https://lnkd.in/gyWQRQVy 🔷 Send a simple staff explainer: Personal Gmail = consumer account. District email = edu account. No confusion. No accidental PII uploads. 🔷 Badge photo requests may pop up during verification. If you allow it, clearly state this should not become common practice and remind staff of your district’s ID-verification procedures. 🔷 Push guidance on safe, effective GenAI use and link your district’s resources, exemplars, and classroom supports. 🔷 Clarify student tools: This teacher version is not a student tool. If kids are using ChatGPT, it’s outside your enterprise domain. Reinforce approved student platforms (Copilot, Gemini, etc.). https://lnkd.in/eM_Ns_ed
