Flint K12 for teachers

Flint K12 is like a school version of ChatGPT developed for use by students and teachers in K12 schools.  D-E is currently piloting the service from January until June of 2024 for use by teachers of any grade level and their students in any division. Flint allows a teacher or a coach to create a chat bot configured to your specific purpose by inputting learning objectives. 

D-E teachers and students can sign in to Flint using your d-e.org Google account at de.flintk12.com

Two of the things that Flint can facilitate are:

• Provide a chat on a specific topic focused on learning objectives.  Options available to use only sources specified by the teacher or chatting in a target language besides English.

• Automatically provide writing advice to a student based on your teacher-created rubric with a complete transcript of the chat automatically available to you as the teacher.

Note: On March 1, a new version of Flint was released. Nothing a teacher had previously set up should need to be changed. However, the new interface for teachers is a bit different. If you last used Flint before March 1, you may wish to see this Flint announcement page for a summary and brief video of the changes.

Access and Sign In

There is no free version of Flint. However, any teacher or student with a d-e.org Google account can access a trial of the paid service until June 2204.  To access the service use the Sign In with Google option.

(Prior to March 1, 2024, teachers needed to request access for themselves and students, but that is no longer necessary as long as you sign in using your school Google account.)

Feedback

Please share your questions, positive and negative opinions, and experiences related to Flint with Bill Campbell in Computer Services. One purpose of this one-semester pilot is to determine if we should continue with the service next year.  Your input will inform that decision.
