Artificial Intelligence in Education Sector enabled solutions and tools empower teachers and students with a wide area of learning and teaching opportunities in various formats. The technology assists institutions in bringing about significant changes in their processes and designing a curriculum based on knowledge. AI, in any form, offers a fascinating way for teachers to teach and help students learn through customized study materials in a friendly environment.
Today’s way of teaching students and their study is very different from what it was some years ago. AI-enabled technology has also allowed administrative tasks to be automated, enabling organizations to reduce the time required to complete tedious tasks and everyday processes.
Here are some of the major applications and use cases of Artificial Intelligence in Education Sector
AI-Enabled Administrative Task Automation
AI’s advents have automated much of the administrative tasks that have consequently provided teachers and organizations more time to communicate with students, plan for a class, or concentrate on other essential activities. The technology has allowed the automation of paperwork classification and processing, meaning that teachers and administrators no longer have to do these tasks manually. In the coming years, AI could potentially create more efficient enrolment and admission processes.
AI for Improved Grading System
Teachers often spend a lot of time grading exams, reviewing homework, and giving their students feedback. AI can be helpful here. However, technology can not completely replace the human grading system, but it can help. Using AI, teachers can automate grading for multiple-choice and fill-in-the-blank tests of almost all kinds. Such technology can evaluate the knowledge of students, analyze their answers, and provide helpful input and help teachers develop customized student training plans. AI systems also get pretty close to being able to evaluate the students’ writing, as well.
AI-Enabled Smart Content
The traditional syllabuses were enabled to create customized textbooks through AI. Such textbooks are being digitized, creating new learning interfaces to help students of all academic grades. For example, Cram101 uses AI to help break down the contents of textbooks into a more accessible study guide. This makes it easy to explore with chapter summaries, flashcards, and practical tests.
AI-Enabled Smart Tutorials
A smart tutoring system allows customized online tutoring that is tailored to the students’ learning styles and preferences. Such programs operate according to the student’s needs by putting greater emphasis on those topics, reinforcing things students have not learned. It also allows the students at their own pace to work. Smart tutoring programs such as Mastery Learning and Carnegie Learning use cognitive science and AI technology to give post-secondary students customized tutoring and real-time feedback.
Personalized Learning by Artificial Intelligence
A number of educational programs have been developed which optimize the learning speed and the instructional method for each learner’s needs. These AI-powered apps allow students to customize learning where their teachers give personalized and tailored responses. Teachers can also break down the lessons into smart study guides and flashcards to make it easier for students to understand. Through this, teachers will also be able to teach students based on the skill of an individual student and the challenges they encounter while learning class materials.
Worldwide Learning
AI has made it easier for the world to learn any course from anywhere around the globe. Students can use the benefits of convenient learning from anywhere in the world at any time through AI systems, software, and support. AI-enabled technologies have also helped to make world classrooms accessible to all, even if they belong to a different linguistic community.
For instance, the Presentation Translator, which is a free PowerPoint plug-in, provides real-time subtitles for what the instructor is saying. Besides, voice recognition and translation through Azure Cognitive Services enables students to hear or read what’s being said in their own native language.
