Microsoft Copilot is a tool that uses generative AI to serve as a helpful assistant to you in the classroom. Copilot can help you save time, differentiate instruction, and enhance student learning. With Copilot, you can easily create lesson plans, quizzes, rubrics, and other class resources for any level of learner.
I’ve been using Microsoft Copilot in educational contexts through my institutional enterprise license for a few months, and it works reasonably well. I typically prefer the outputs generated by Claude and Bard, but the institutional data protection that’s built into Copilot is handy for more sensitive documents. I also like the integration of Copilot into the sidebar in Edge (see below for a quick demo).
