AI Student Board Builder

Your students are already using AI. Right now it does their thinking for them. This makes it do the opposite.

You read the papers that all sound the same. The pasted prompt, the copied answer, the student who learned nothing. Banning it didn't work. Ignoring it works even less.

What it does

Upload your course materials. A few minutes later you have a complete, semester-long assignment that turns each student's AI into a personal board of expert advisors for your course. They stop asking it for answers and start arguing with it.

You don't write a single prompt. Every one is generated for your course, in plain steps your students follow on their own.

How it works

1. Upload everything. Syllabus, assignment prompts, rubrics, reading lists, lecture notes, even your slides. The more you give it, the sharper the Board.
2. Confirm what it pulled from your materials, pick which AI tool your students use, and set the rollout.
3. Hand it off. You get a ready-to-assign program with every prompt written for your course, plus a teacher guide.

What your students build

A board of 5 to 9 expert advisors they create inside ChatGPT, Claude, or Gemini and use all semester to:

• Pressure-test their thinking instead of outsourcing it
• Drill the specific skills your course is about
• Tear their own drafts apart before you ever see them
• Rehearse for presentations and oral exams
• Think across disciplines, not just inside one
• Slowly turn those expert voices into their own

What you get

• A custom 7-part assignment with every prompt filled in for your course
• A student packet that runs on a free AI account, no paid plan required
• A teacher guide: an assignment description for your LMS, an AI-policy paragraph for your syllabus, a first-day script, a rollout calendar mapped to your due dates, and how to grade it without drowning
• Works for any discipline, high school or college

Who this was built for

• The teacher reading identical papers. Your students paste the assignment into ChatGPT and hand you back its answer. You want their AI use to produce thinking you can see, without policing anyone.
• The teacher with no time to learn prompt-writing. You want the complete assignment, generated for your actual course from your actual materials, and zero homework about how to ask an AI for things.
• The department early adopter. Colleagues keep asking you what to do about AI. Handing them a working semester-long program answers the question better than another meeting.

It was not built for surveillance. Nothing in it detects, flags, or accuses. It changes what students do with AI instead of guessing at what they did.

Who built it

I am Doan Winkel: professor of entrepreneurship at John Carroll University, Founding Director of the Bill & Sue Donnelly School of Leadership and Social Innovation, cofounder of the Experiential Entrepreneurship Curriculum used at about 200 colleges. More than 20,000 teachers read my newsletter, How to Teach With AI.

My own students run advisory boards all term, and this tool is that assignment, generalized so it builds itself from your materials instead of mine.

Questions teachers ask before starting

What do my students need? A free ChatGPT, Claude, or Gemini account. The student packet assumes no paid plan and no prior AI skill.

How long does setup take me? Uploading materials takes a few minutes; the program generates from there. You review it, adjust the rollout dates, and post it to your LMS.

Why from $67 a semester? One semester-long assignment, every prompt written for your course, plus the teacher guide. Priced per course so a single-prep adjunct is not subsidizing a four-course load.

What happens when the trial ends? If you keep it, billing starts on the plan you picked. If you cancel, you keep what you already generated; students mid-semester are never cut off from a packet you handed out.
