Change the command prompts and analyse the different responses, evaluating the best results.

I asked Chat GPT to generate a 4 mark question for all KS3 NC subjects, then to create stretch and challenge questions, then extended answer questions, and a mark scheme and a rubric.

As an example, I used Google Gemini earlier, giving it the simple instruction to 'create a low-stakes test, based on the first two scenes of 'Macbeth', which is aimed at 14-15 year olds with significant barriers to learning' Within seconds, I had a really nice starter that I could give my Y10s as they came in. The test reinforced what they knew and threw up a couple of misconceptions. They then stuck it into their book, but you can see where it would also fit in with an ipad framework.

I copied a small section of the spec as a source. The AI then generates a written breakdown. From this, it can then do the internet research to generate a conversation between two AIs (one male, one female, both American (sadly)). They chat over the content - breaking it down verbally. Sample attached. Can only be created at home as Google online apps are blocked in school.

It did most of the heavy lifting and then I could edit it from there.

I then copied it into a Word doc so I could get it how I wanted it to look. Turned out really well - see attached.
