The AI Co-Pilot: A Teacher’s Guide to Modern Lesson Planning

<h2 style="text-align: left;"> The AI Co-Pilot: A Teacher’s Guide to Modern Lesson Planning</h2>
<p data-end="666" data-start="412">Artificial intelligence, or A.I., is today an indispensable tool in virtually every industry of the twenty-first century. It is already having an impact on education comparable to, or perhaps greater than, that of Wikipedia during the early internet era.</p>
<p data-end="950" data-start="668">The education industry has long adopted new technologies in different forms to improve lesson delivery and achieve learning outcomes. A.I. is another innovative technology that the modern education system and educators must consequently adopt and have in their professional toolbox.</p>
<p data-end="1253" data-start="952">The importance of planning and preparation for any class cannot be overemphasised. Yet, planning time is often long, unpaid, invisible and repetitive. One profound use of A.I. in education is its ability to reduce the time and effort teachers and educators put into planning and preparing for classes.</p>
<p data-end="1363" data-start="1255">This post demonstrates some practical A.I. skills that teachers can adapt to suit different classroom needs.</p>
<h2 data-end="1385" data-section-id="dwqzkr" data-start="1365">The A.I. co-pilot</h2>
<p data-end="1680" data-start="1387">Think of A.I. as the <strong data-end="1419" data-start="1408">creator</strong>—one that drafts lesson plans, plans activities, prepares assessments and generates discussion questions for classroom engagement. Essentially, A.I. does much of the heavy lifting involved in structuring information and preparing an initial plan for your class.</p>
<p data-end="1984" data-start="1682">The teacher then becomes the <strong data-end="1722" data-start="1711">curator</strong>—the person who carries out the pedagogical review of the A.I.-generated plan. You add the human touch, personal anecdotes and lived experience. You change the tone, remove unsuitable activities and edit the draft to match your preferences and classroom context.</p>
<p data-end="2129" data-start="1986">A.I. should therefore not replace the teacher. It should serve as a co-pilot that supports the teacher’s professional judgement and creativity.</p>
<h2 data-end="2168" data-section-id="hzkmex" data-start="2131">Prompting frameworks for educators</h2>
<p data-end="2306" data-start="2170">There are bad prompts and good prompts. An optimised A.I. output requires a reliable formula that improves both consistency and quality.</p>
<p data-end="2345" data-start="2308">For example, when you ask an A.I. to:</p>
<blockquote data-end="2404" data-start="2347">
<p data-end="2404" data-start="2349">Write a lesson plan on the transport system in animals.</p>
</blockquote>
<p data-end="2572" data-start="2406">there is a good chance that you will receive a generic output filled with buzzwords, vague objectives or activities that may be impossible to carry out in your class.</p>
<p data-end="2663" data-start="2574">The output may become a classic example of the <strong data-end="2650" data-start="2621">“garbage in, garbage out”</strong> rule of A.I.</p>
<p data-end="2853" data-start="2665">A.I. may be smart, but it cannot read your mind. It does not know your students, classroom layout, class size, teaching style or available resources unless you include them in your prompt.</p>
<p data-end="2958" data-start="2855">Below are two prompting frameworks that educators can use to obtain more consistent and useful outputs.</p>
<h2 data-end="2980" data-section-id="hjwzj4" data-start="2960">1. RCTC framework</h2>
<p data-end="3115" data-start="2982">RCTC is best used when you want to generate a quick draft. It is easy to remember and gives you tighter control over the A.I. output.</p>
<h3 data-end="3125" data-section-id="ynpk8i" data-start="3117">Role</h3>
<p data-end="3154" data-start="3127">Who should the A.I. act as?</p>
<blockquote data-end="3208" data-start="3156">
<p data-end="3208" data-start="3158">Act as an experienced Grade 5 Mathematics teacher.</p>
</blockquote>
<h3 data-end="3221" data-section-id="1o7ic3d" data-start="3210">Context</h3>
<p data-end="3254" data-start="3223">What is the specific situation?</p>
<blockquote data-end="3428" data-start="3256">
<p data-end="3428" data-start="3258">You are teaching a class of 28 students, including four students with individual learning needs and three students who are still developing their English-language skills.</p>
</blockquote>
<h3 data-end="3438" data-section-id="ynqrpn" data-start="3430">Task</h3>
<p data-end="3480" data-start="3440">What exactly do you want the A.I. to do?</p>
<blockquote data-end="3547" data-start="3482">
<p data-end="3547" data-start="3484">Create a ten-minute warm-up activity for multiplying fractions.</p>
</blockquote>
<h3 data-end="3564" data-section-id="jhbiwg" data-start="3549">Constraints</h3>
<p data-end="3590" data-start="3566">What are the boundaries?</p>
<blockquote data-end="3715" data-start="3592">
<p data-end="3715" data-start="3594">Do not use any technology. Keep the reading level suitable for Grade 4 students and format the output as a bulleted list.</p>
</blockquote>
<h3 data-end="3741" data-section-id="1rbbx59" data-start="3717">Complete RCTC prompt</h3>
<blockquote data-end="4152" data-start="3743">
<p data-end="4152" data-start="3745">Act as an experienced Grade 5 Mathematics teacher. You are teaching a class of 28 students, including four students with individual learning needs and three students who are still developing their English-language skills. Create a ten-minute warm-up activity for multiplying fractions. Do not use any technology. Keep the reading level suitable for Grade 4 students and format the output as a bulleted list.</p>
</blockquote>
<p data-end="4277" data-start="4154">This is more likely to produce a practical response than simply asking A.I. to create an activity on multiplying fractions.</p>
<h2 data-end="4301" data-section-id="2am2jl" data-start="4279">2. CREATE framework</h2>
<p data-end="4473" data-start="4303">CREATE is useful when planning a more detailed lesson. The framework requires you to give A.I. the pedagogical context it needs to draft the type of lesson plan you want.</p>
<h3 data-end="4490" data-section-id="1mxv31q" data-start="4475">C — Context</h3>
<p data-end="4583" data-start="4492">State the grade level, subject, class size, lesson duration and any specific student needs.</p>
<h3 data-end="4597" data-section-id="15sb1o4" data-start="4585">R — Role</h3>
<p data-end="4639" data-start="4599">State the persona the A.I. should adopt.</p>

<h3 data-end="4722" data-section-id="2o5f0m" data-start="4702">E — Expectations</h3>
<p data-end="4814" data-start="4724">State the learning objectives, curriculum expectations or standards that must be achieved.</p>
<blockquote data-end="4967" data-start="4816">
<p data-end="4967" data-start="4818">By the end of the lesson, students should be able to explain the transport system in mammals and distinguish between arteries, veins and capillaries.</p>
</blockquote>
<h3 data-end="4987" data-section-id="j99syg" data-start="4969">A — Activities</h3>
<p data-end="5038" data-start="4989">Mention the type of activities you want included.</p>
<blockquote data-end="5135" data-start="5040">
<p data-end="5135" data-start="5042">Include a starter question, a labelled-diagram activity, group discussion and an exit ticket.</p>
</blockquote>
<h3 data-end="5160" data-section-id="1k8sj4u" data-start="5137">T — Tone and format</h3>
<p data-end="5229" data-start="5162">Explain how the output should sound and how it should be presented.</p>
<blockquote data-end="5380" data-start="5231">
<p data-end="5380" data-start="5233">Write in a clear and encouraging tone. Present the lesson plan in a table with columns for time, teacher activity, student activity and assessment.</p>

<h3 data-end="5411" data-section-id="19a83oa" data-start="5382">E — Exclusions and extras</h3>
<p data-end="5491" data-start="5413">State what should be avoided and what additional materials should be included.</p>
<blockquote data-end="5628" data-start="5493">
<p data-end="5628" data-start="5495">Exclude activities that require a projector or internet connection. Include a three-question exit ticket and five homework questions.</p>
</blockquote>
<h3 data-end="5656" data-section-id="hamuvj" data-start="5630">Complete CREATE prompt</h3>
<blockquote data-end="6385" data-start="5658">
<p data-end="6385" data-start="5660">Act as a veteran Senior Secondary School Biology teacher. Prepare a 40-minute lesson for a class of 35 students on the transport system in mammals. By the end of the lesson, students should be able to explain double circulation, identify the major parts of the heart and distinguish between arteries, veins and capillaries. Include a five-minute starter activity, a labelled-diagram activity, group discussion and a three-question exit ticket. Write in clear British English and present the lesson plan in a table with columns for time, teacher activity, student activity, resources and assessment. Do not include activities that require internet access or a projector. Add five homework questions and a simple marking guide.</p>
</blockquote>
<h2 data-end="6419" data-section-id="iww245" data-start="6387">Bad prompt versus good prompt</h2>
<h3 data-end="6435" data-section-id="v70zwl" data-start="6421">Bad prompt</h3>
<blockquote data-end="6477" data-start="6437">
<p data-end="6477" data-start="6439">Write a lesson plan on photosynthesis.</p>
</blockquote>
<p data-end="6596" data-start="6479">This prompt does not provide the class level, duration, available resources, learning objectives or preferred format.</p>
<h3 data-end="6615" data-section-id="1l8sifm" data-start="6598">Better prompt</h3>
<blockquote data-end="7117" data-start="6617">
<p data-end="7117" data-start="6619">Act as an experienced JSS 2 Basic Science teacher. Prepare a 40-minute lesson on photosynthesis for a mixed-ability class of 32 students. The lesson should help students define photosynthesis, identify its raw materials and products, and explain its importance to living organisms. Use only a chalkboard, fresh leaves and locally available materials. Include a five-minute starter activity, teacher explanation, group activity, assessment questions and homework. Present the lesson plan in a table.</p>
</blockquote>
<p data-end="7239" data-start="7119">The second prompt gives the A.I. enough information to prepare something closer to the teacher’s actual classroom needs.</p>
<h2 data-end="7276" data-section-id="cs1gpp" data-start="7241">Pro tip: Use iterative prompting</h2>
<p data-end="7365" data-start="7278">Your first prompt will rarely produce your final lesson plan. Treat A.I. as a co-pilot.</p>
<p data-end="7495" data-start="7367">When the output is not quite right, do not start all over again. Give feedback and tell the A.I. exactly what should be changed.</p>
<p data-end="7509" data-start="7497">For example:</p>
<blockquote data-end="7675" data-start="7511">
<p data-end="7675" data-start="7513">This is a good draft, but the lesson hook may be too boring for my energetic students. Give me three alternative high-energy hooks that do not require technology.</p>
</blockquote>
<p data-end="7725" data-start="7677">You can also use follow-up instructions such as:</p>
<blockquote data-end="7794" data-start="7727">
<p data-end="7794" data-start="7729">Simplify the explanation for students with weaker reading skills.</p>
</blockquote>
<blockquote data-end="7853" data-start="7796">
<p data-end="7853" data-start="7798">Replace the group activity with an individual activity.</p>
</blockquote>
<blockquote data-end="7921" data-start="7855">
<p data-end="7921" data-start="7857">Reduce the lesson to 30 minutes without removing the assessment.</p>
</blockquote>
<blockquote data-end="7984" data-start="7923">
<p data-end="7984" data-start="7925">Use examples that are more familiar to students in Nigeria.</p>
</blockquote>
<blockquote data-end="8047" data-start="7986">
<p data-end="8047" data-start="7988">Create an extension activity for students who finish early.</p>
</blockquote>
<p data-end="8172" data-start="8049">This process is known as <strong data-end="8097" data-start="8074">iterative prompting</strong>. You continue refining the draft until it becomes suitable for your class.</p>
<h2 data-end="8192" data-section-id="1tdyhmr" data-start="8174">A final caution</h2>
<p data-end="8286" data-start="8194">A.I.-generated lesson plans should always be reviewed before they are used in the classroom.</p>
<p data-end="8538" data-start="8288">Teachers should check the facts, calculations, examples and references provided by the A.I. They should also ensure that the lesson follows the approved curriculum, reflects the students’ learning needs and uses resources that are actually available.</p>
<p data-end="8736" data-start="8540">Confidential information about individual students should not be entered into public A.I. tools. The teacher remains responsible for the final lesson plan and every material used in the classroom.</p>
<h2 data-end="8751" data-section-id="8dtpi" data-start="8738">Conclusion</h2>
<p data-end="8956" data-start="8753">A.I. can reduce the time and effort teachers spend on repetitive lesson-planning tasks. It can draft lesson plans, suggest activities, prepare assessments and generate questions for classroom engagement.</p>
<p data-end="9085" data-start="8958">However, A.I. should remain a co-pilot. It may create the first draft, but the teacher must curate, personalise and improve it.</p>
<p data-end="9291" data-is-last-node="" data-is-only-node="" data-start="9087">With prompting frameworks such as <strong data-end="9129" data-start="9121">RCTC</strong> and <strong data-end="9144" data-start="9134">CREATE</strong>, educators can get better results while still retaining the human judgement, creativity and classroom experience that effective teaching requires.</p>

Is RNV Still a Subject in Nigerian Schools? What Replaced Religion and National Values

<blockquote style="border-color: currentcolor; border-image: none; border-style: none; border-width: medium; border: none; margin: 0px 0px 0px 40px; padding: 0px;"><p style="text-align: left;">For the background to the curriculum that originally introduced Religion and National Values, read our earlier explanation of <a href="https://akomst.blogspot.com/2013/11/basic-education-curriculum-revised.html">Nigeria’s revised Basic Education Curriculum</a>.</p></blockquote><h3 data-end="4535" data-section-id="17ral3i" data-start="4514">1. What RNV means</h3>

<p data-end="4245" data-start="4006" style="text-align: left;"><strong data-end="4049" data-start="4006">RNV means Religion and National Values.</strong> It was a composite subject that brought together Christian Religious Studies or Islamic Studies, Social Studies, Civic Education and Security Education under Nigeria’s Basic Education Curriculum.</p>Under the revised curriculum being introduced from the 2025/2026 academic year, RNV is no longer listed as one composite subject. CRS and Islamic Studies are listed separately, while Nigerian History and Social and Citizenship Studies appear as distinct subjects.<h3 data-end="4535" data-section-id="17ral3i" data-start="4514">2. Subjects formerly contained in RNV</h3>
<ul data-end="4759" data-start="4651"><li data-end="4681" data-section-id="rwg2m" data-start="4651">Christian Religious Studies;
</li>
<li data-end="4700" data-section-id="1yctca" data-start="4682">

</li>
</ul>
<p data-end="4957" data-start="4761" style="text-align: left;">Christian and Muslim pupils were not expected to study both religions. Schools were required to organise separate Christian Religious Studies and Islamic Studies classes according to the pupils’ religious backgrounds. </p>
<h3 data-end="4988" data-section-id="13px5m0" data-start="4959">3. Why RNV was introduced</h3>
RNV was introduced mainly to reduce subject overload by grouping related religion, citizenship, social and value-oriented subjects under one curriculum heading.<br /><p data-end="5113" data-start="4990" style="text-align: left;">
</p><p data-end="2260" data-start="2083" style="text-align: left;">The arrangement reduced the number of subjects appearing on school timetables, although the different components were still expected to be taught by suitably qualified teachers.</p>
<h3 data-end="5145" data-section-id="73mzz5" data-start="5115">4. Is RNV still a subject?</h3>
<p data-end="5613" data-start="5480" style="text-align: left;"><span data-end="5613" data-start="5480">No. RNV does not appear as a composite subject in the revised Basic Education Curriculum.</span> </p><p data-end="5613" data-start="5480" style="text-align: left;">Its former components have either been separated or reorganised. Religious education is now listed independently, while citizenship and social-learning content is taught through Social and Citizenship Studies.</p>
<p>Therefore, a school implementing the revised curriculum should no longer present Religion and National Values as one combined subject for the affected classes. </p>

<br /><div style="text-align: justify;">The Kwara State Chairman of the Nigeria Union of Teachers, Mr. Musa Abubakar, has said that 27 states in Nigeria have been unable to pay teachers' salaries.<br /><br />He added that workers and teachers, in particular, were the worst hit of Nigeria's current economic recession.<br /><br />He spoke on Wednesday during the World Teachers' Day in Ilorin.<br /><br />He also condemned what he described as government's inability to match its words with action.<br /><br />"A case in point is the Federal Government's decision to recruit 500,000 graduates into the public schools, whereas there are enough educationally inclined graduates without job," he noted.<br /><br />Abubakar said, "Primary school teachers in Kwara State have enjoyed uninterrupted payment of salaries before May 2015. However, since then, primary school teachers are being owed months of unpaid salaries. As I speak, teachers are being owed five-month salary."<br /><br />He urged the Federal Government to assume the responsibility of funding primary education, "since the finance of the LGs are over-stressed and cannot cope with such responsibilities."<br /><br />The Kwara State Governor, Abdulfatah Ahmed, said government's reliance on oil revenue as the major income earner and the reliance on federal allocations by states and local governments had contributed to the challenge of payment of salaries of teachers and others workers.<br /><br />He lamented that revenues from states and local governments had been reducing, noting that the challenges being faced by teachers are not individual but national.<br /><br />He said though it is desirable to address all the demands of teachers, the current national recession has made it difficult to do so. He urged all the stakeholders to focus on how to successfully tackle the recession and the attendant problems.<br /><br />He said the state government has so far been alive to its financial responsibilities towards teachers, adding that teachers' salaries and other entitlements at the state level are being paid regularly.</div>

 Students of various institutions under the aegis of National Association of Kwara State Students have staged a demonstration to the Government House, Ilorin for non-payment of five years bursary by the State Government.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The students, in their numbers, stormed the gate of the Government House, demanding to see Governor Abdulfatah Ahmed address them on why their allowances had not been paid for nearly five years.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Carrying  placards bearing various inscriptions, the students noted that while other states were paying 20,000 Naira, Kwara State could only afford the regular 5,000 Naira.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
They alleged that nearly 500 Million Naira was budgeted for the payment in the 2016 budget and yet the government had continued to deny them their rights.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The security operatives on hand pleaded and ensured that they maintain peace.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Reacting, the State Commissioner for Information, Mahmud Jeigbe, said that the allegation of not being paid for five years is exaggerated as it was paid some years ago.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
He explained that the economic situation of the country caused the delay.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Th government, he noted was aware of the need to pay and would surely do so when a committee set up by the Governor to look at the issue finishes its assignment.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
As the students wait for the conclusion of the assignment on the issue of bursary, the education sector, according to the Commissioner, would continue to be given paramount attention by the Kwara state government.</div>

History was made in Ilorin, the Kwara State capital about a fortnight 
ago when the management of the University of Ilorin included Mrs. 
Medinat Folorunso Salman in the list of the institution's newly 
appointed professors.<br />
<br />

By her appointment, Medinat Salman who teaches Mathematics Education 
at the university thus became the first female professor from Ilorin 
Emirate.<br />
<br />

It was therefore not surprising when the Emir of Ilorin, Alh. Ibrahim
 Sulu Gambari, deemed it fit to organise a special prayer in his palace 
to mark Salman's appointment.<br />
<br />

The new professor of Mathematics was honoured by the Emir alongside 
the new Vice-Chancellor of UNILORIN, Prof. AbdulGaniyu Ambali; and three
 other newly appointed professors who all hail from Ilorin Emirate; 
Professors Badmas Lanre Yusuf, Muhammed Mustapha Akanbi and Yusuf 
Adebayo AbdulKareem.<br />
<br />

Speaking with LEADERSHIP SUNDAY shortly after the prayer session at 
the Emir's palace, Professor Medinat Salman said that she has always 
prayed and worked hard to be part of the emirate's success story. This 
determination she said spurred her to achieve the feat of emerging as 
the first female professor from the emirate.<br />
<br />

She, however, disclosed that the achievement she has recorded and now
 being celebrated by friends and associates was not without encountering
 various challenges both at the home front and at her work place.<br />

Salman added that her good intention to impart positively on the 
lives of others as well as being a good example to the womenfolk in the 
emirate has always been her drive right from her youthful age.<br />
<br />

The female professor, who bemoaned the low rate of women acquiring 
education in the emirate, however, pointed out that though it is not 
easy combining career with the demands of duties at the home front but 
with hard work and commitment, one would scale through.<br />
<br />

According to her, biologically both male and female are the same, 
even though man is the head of the family "but if you are determined 
whatever the men can achieve, as a woman you can also do it".<br />

"Even if it requires waking up in the midnight, one would have to do 
it so. I don't believe that there is anything the female cannot do, we 
are only different structurally".<br />
<br />

In his remarks, the emir of Ilorin, Alh. Ibrahim Sulu Gambari said 
the recent elevation of five of his subjects at once was a rare feat in 
the history of Ilorin and therefore, it called for prayer.<br />

Gambari, who expressed his joy at the achievements recorded by his subjects, sought Allah's guidance and protection for them.<br />
<br />

The chief Imam of Ilorin, Alhaji Mohammad Bashir Imam Solihu, who led
 the prayer asked Allah to endow the new professors all it takes to be 
successful in their new positions.<br />
<br />

Before her elevation Salman, Medinat Folorunso was a senior lecturer 
in the department of Science Education and she is the Coordinator of 
Educational Technology Centre at the university of Ilorin.<br />

She baged her B.Ed. Mathematics, Second Class Upper, from Ahmadu 
Bello University, Zaria, 1985; M.Ed. Mathematics Education, University 
of Ilorin, 1990; and PhD Mathematics Education, University of Ilorin, 
1998.<br />
<br />

Her research interests include Mathematics Education, Gender Issue in
 Mathematics and Science Education; Innovation in Mathematics Education 
in the Developing World.</div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
He highlighted “the apparent
 hardship suffered by teachers on account of the prolonged non-payment 
of over six months’ salaries owed primary and secondary school teachers 
in order to be at par with other civil servants in the state”.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Other
 problems discussed were the planned dismissal of teachers employed in 
2008/2009, the non-payment of duty post allowances, shifting the 
responsibility of funding primary school teachers’ salaries to local 
government councils and non-implementation of promotions.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Others are the 18,000 naira minimum wage arrears and non-inclusion of stakeholders in state education law committee.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
According to them, if these issues are not resolved, they would stop working.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The
 chairman continued by saying “an ultimatum of 21 days from today is 
given to the Bayelsa state government to fully pay the four months’ 
salaries of all teachers and address other problems”.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
“For some teachers, these months without salary has been hellish as daily survival has been a major challenge,” he said.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The government on their part say they would do their best to pay the salaries for as many months as they can afford.</div>
