If you think that artificial intelligence is still “the next big thing” then you could not be more wrong. It is widely used in education these days. And its popularity does not stop growing.
With kids learning how to code from the very young age at school and mastering different types of technology trends inside the classroom, artificial intelligence is gaining its momentum at the moment. So, one cannot but expect artificial intelligence (AI) to become a powerful tool used by educators.
“Human plus machine isn’t the future, it’s the present,” Garry Kasparov has said recently, and we could not agree with him more on this one.
We already know tons of Virtual and Augmented Reality tools used in the classroom and transforming the day-to-day learning routine into an exciting and engaging process. But what exactly is the future of artificial intelligence here?
We are about to take a look at the answer to this question in this article. So, read on to find out!
Artificial intelligence inside the classroom
AI can be used to grade students’ works.
Educators have to dedicate a huge portion of their time daily to grading students’ works. However, once proper tools are developed, teachers can save much time by leaving bookkeeping and grading tasks to the machines.
As a result, educators will be able to use this time for improved student-teacher communication, developing personalized programs lesson plans, as well as professional growth.
Wouldn’t all of this be great?
AI can make education more personalized.
Education can be personalized allowing children to study at their own pace with no peer pressure and unbearable chunks of information to digest daily. This is especially beneficial for African American students who feel pressured by the black excellence movement, always thinking that they must excel at everything they do.
With new programs emerging every day and different companies pioneering this field, we hope to see the benefits of AI for personalized education in the nearest future.
Just think about it: it is not possible for a teacher to work individually with every student in the classroom on his level. However, with artificial intelligence keeping track and monitoring the progress of every child, we are going to achieve great results in this area and have more kids successfully finish their education.
The National Center for Education Statistics reports that “Over the most recent 5-year period, from 2010 to 2015, the status dropout rate fell from 7.4 to 5.9 percent.” And this number can decrease even more with the aid of AI inside the classroom.
AI can make education an immersive experience.
Students will want to obtain a degree and try a little harder at schools if the education process is turned into an immersive experience.
No more need to compose standard research paper topics. Students can be given a chance to choose from themes they are most passionate about as well as experiment. The education system as we know it today is rather archaic. But to spur creativity and encourage students to dive into the educational process, one has to apply unconventional methods at schools. And that is when AI comes into the game.
Today we already know tools like Captivating Virtual Instruction for Training (CVIT) that offer the best education experience thanks to the latest technology implementation.
AI can be used for teachers’ training and professional development.
Students are not the only ones who can leverage the use of AI for their benefit. Educators themselves need to constantly grow their expertise to offer up-to-date knowledge in an interesting and engaging manner.
With AI allowing students to “feel” the information taught rather than simply being heard, educators can step forward and bring knowledge to the classroom in a new innovative way.
AI will make it much easier for teachers to make knowledge clear and understandable. It will help them learn how to achieve better results with the technology at their hands.
With the predictions that AI market will be $100 billion worth by 2025, we all have high hopes for artificial intelligence benefits inside every classroom. Mariya Yao has recently posted an article on Forbes where she offers an example of how AI can bring deep learning to all students across the globe.
She said: “While major corporations and Wall Street hedge funds see A.I. as a tool for superior profits, entrepreneurs and engineers around the world see machine intelligence as a path towards a better society.”
And a better society always starts with better schools and improved education. So, we have only to wait and see what a great impact the AI will have on education within the next decade.
Nice blog thanks for sharing
It is also one of greatest technologies of our time is Artificial Intelligence (AI) which is creating quite the buzz in the digital space. Given its potential for storytelling and marketing, Artificial Intelligence in B2B sales and marketing is here to transform the way people interact with brands, information and services.
Hello,
It is very nice blog.
Thanks.
