ChatGPT Sites for Teachers: Build & Host Interactive Classroom Websites in Minutes

In this Teacher’s AI Cafe episode, the host explains ChatGPT’s new paid-only “Sites” feature that lets teachers build and deploy custom task-specific websites when existing sites don’t fit classroom needs. Using the desktop app, they demonstrate creating a Year 10 Munich Putsch site with timelines, quizzes, and activities, adjusting sharing from private to public, and iterating to add primary sources and video links while noting update issues. They showcase a more successful “Democracy Under Pressure” site that includes archival footage and a vocabulary quiz, plus an interactive history escape room converted from an existing paper resource with codes, hints, and primary sources. The host highlights customization, analytics, settings, and optional custom domains, and contrasts ChatGPT-hosted sites with downloadable HTML pages.
