How Can AI Be Used In Education - Examples of Today and Future Applications

Education system has evolved in many ways. There are technology forms such as artificial intelligence and machine learning that are changing the way of education. According to experts, presence of teachers is irreplaceable but the changes due to these factors will certainly change the equation. 

Teachers and AI

As the applications for AI increase, some of the problems in education will resolve. AI can promote efficiency and personalization. By leveraging the benefits that comes with AI, teachers would be able to collaborate with it in a proficient manner. The vision should be to work together so as to produce best outcome for students.

 

Individualized Learning

Every student has different needs. And it is not possible to crack the shell of each students' needs manually. This is where AI can step in and help teachers give more differentiated and personalised learning to the students. Customizing curriculum based on a student's needs doesn't seem viable today but AI does give a future peek into it.

 

Universal Access for All Students

AI tools and innovation can help in reaching all the students who are segregated by the languages they speak or those who have any sort of visual or hearing impairment. This will create a bright opportunity for global classrooms.

 

Automate Admin Tasks

An educator has to spend a lot of time grading papers and preparing tests. AI can make the task easier. Now AI is able to grade MCQ papers but soon their application is going to spread to written responses as well.

 

The changes in AI have begun and will continue in the future.
