Al in education.

The contribution of AI in education is extremely important, as it can bring a lot to the learning process. It can help in the adaptation of students, aiming to identify the needs and abilities of each student and to personalize their education! A key element is for the teacher to have knowledge and skills in the use of new technologies in order to be able to channel and use them correctly and for the benefit of the students. Of course this is a big challenge for teachers too because they may feel that AI is coming to take over their role! Digital omniscient is what they call artificial intelligence, since it answers any question you ask! But on the other hand, it can even “read” a student’s face and recognize signs that they have not understood the subject e.g. of the lesson and then it can adapt the lesson to suit that particular student! And let’s not forget that classes at school are crowded, so with the use of AI more and more children will have help. Also, AI-powered technologies can be a help for a student with special needs who is really struggling to follow the learning process. AI can create inclusive and friendly environments that increase student participation. Education is a journey that has no end, it is a road where you are constantly discovering new things, new challenges and we should all be able to cope. Perhaps the only concern is whether using AI reduces students’ critical thinking or whether they have difficulties in substantiating their opinions since AI provides predefined and ready-made solutions.
