Bookmark: How AI innovation is driving educational excellence
I came across an insightful article by Bobby Hellard on ITPro that delves into how generative AI is reshaping education. It’s fascinating to see AI being used as digital teaching assistants, helping both students and teachers with personalized learning tools. Hellard notes the critical need to address academic integrity as AI becomes more prevalent, suggesting shifts towards process-focused assessments. It’s exciting to consider the potential this has to build essential skills for the future workplace.
A notable quote from the article is: “The adoption of generative AI in the classroom is not to usurp educators, but rather aid them – like digital teaching assistants.”
