How to Artificial Intelligence is Used in Education
I help companies use AI in practice to rethink their business models and strategies, and education is one
area where AI will have a massive impact. It is important to understand that AI is not a threat to
teachers; it's there to deliver a better education to our children and improve the overall learning
experience.
AI helps us rethink the education system and its delivery. We need a more hybrid model that combines
the best of artificially intelligent systems with our teachers. In school, students should focus on
creativity, exploration, discussion, communication skills, and problem-solving. AI can provide a more
differentiated and individualized learning experience.
Companies like Content Technologies and Carnegie Learning are developing AI-driven learning platforms
that track student progress and customize the learning experience based on their needs.
For example, an app like Thinker Math can track student progress in math, identify areas of weakness,
and provide more learning in those areas. This customization is not possible for a teacher with a
classroom of 20 or 30 students.
We already use similar approaches in language learning with tools like GeoLingo and Bubble, allowing
individuals to learn at their own pace. AI can accelerate or decelerate learning speeds and focus on
areas that need more support.
Using AI in education also enables universal access to learning. These apps can be made available
worldwide in any language, giving students access to the best language learning and math tutoring.
AI also helps outsource administrative tasks. Machines can grade exams and even write entire books
autonomously. They can also grade written essays, allowing teachers to spend more time on interactive
and creative parts of learning.
AI is highly relevant to schools, universities, and education organizations, especially as education
becomes a lifelong learning process. Platforms like Coursera and Udemy are already leveraging AI in
their massive online courses.
Overall, AI has the potential to transform teaching and improve the learning experience for both
students and teachers.
