I made https://anylearn.ai, an education app built on OpenAI. if you click the settings icon, then the teach tab, it will generate a teaching guide on any topic. Try it!

I put in "8th grade french" and it gave me a guide on how to develop a teaching guide, not the teaching guide itself. Like "Step 4: Prepare instructional materials", "Step 5: sequence the lesson", etc., with generic instructions for each. The Test Questions tab has questions about my knowledge of lesson planning, not questions for French students.

"College-level calculus" was similar, just vague generic high-level advice with no lesson plan or specific guide.

Good catch. Will modify the prompts to make it produce the desired content.
If there was a tab with a code example when the lesson is related to programming, it would be perfect, as the chat doesn't detect markdown's code block.
