What did @willmaynard1 use ChatGPT for?

Before a summer education conference, a middle school teacher used ChatGPT to evaluate the sessions they had picked for the biggest impact on their students, and it also made a neat graphic of the final choices. They settled on their final choices, and ChatGPT turned them into a graphic they shared ahead of the event.

What they did

How it went

They settled on their final choices, and ChatGPT turned them into a graphic they shared ahead of the event.

Worth knowing

  • ChatGPT only knows what you paste in, so include each session's full description and your goals, or its ranking will be guesswork.
  • Price check: ChatGPT: free plan; Go: US$8/month (checked Nov 1, 2026).

Try it yourself

Paste this into a chatbot, then add your own details underneath.

I'm attending [conference] and picked these sessions: [paste titles, times and descriptions]. My goal is [e.g. the biggest impact on my students in grade X subject Y]. Rank them by how well they fit that goal, flag any time clashes, suggest which to drop, and then make a simple one-page schedule graphic of my final choices.
