AI can do your homework. Now what? Teacherflix 0 Views • 17 days ago

We interviewed students and teachers on how schools should handle the rise of the chatbots.

For a year now, students have had access to AI chatbots, otherwise known as Large Language Models, that can write at a high-school level and answer specific and diverse questions related to many school subjects. OpenAI's ChatGPT kicked off a race among tech companies to release their own chatbots and integrate them into existing consumer products.

The most advanced language models, like GPT-4 and Claude2 are kept behind paywalls. They offer more nuanced answers and make fewer mistakes but because reliability is not guaranteed, many businesses cannot yet deploy these systems. That means a significant portion of chatbot use cases are for low-stakes applications, like school work.

This presents a major challenge to educators, who now need to rethink their curriculum to either incorporate chatbot use or to attempt to deter it. In this video, we hear from students and teachers about how they're thinking through the problem, and review research in the science of learning to understand how the "fluency" of a chatbot experience could disrupt the learning process that we go to school for.

What is A.I. Doing to Higher Education? | Interview Teacherflix 1 Views • 17 days ago

This week, Princeton historian D. Graham Burnett joins us to discuss the existential threat that A.I. poses to the traditional humanities degree and why he believes we’ll see thousands of new schools emerge outside the university system to carry on the exploration of what it means to be a person in the world.

This is a clip from Hard Fork episode 152 https://youtu.be/X-KzyPRdcmc

366 ‒ Transforming education with AI and an individualized, mastery-based education model Teacherflix 30 Views • 17 days ago

Joe Liemandt is a software entrepreneur turned education reformer who left Stanford in 1989 to found Trilogy, a highly profitable private software company, before pivoting to transforming K-12 learning. In this episode, Joe shares how he transitioned from leading a global software enterprise to becoming principal of Alpha School, where his focus is building a mastery-based, individualized education model that leverages AI as the missing infrastructure for large-scale change. He details the shortcomings of traditional K-12 education, explains how Alpha replaces conventional seat time with focused academics, and outlines the role of AI tutors and human coaches in helping students accelerate through material. Joe also discusses early results, the data-driven systems that track progress, and his ambitious plan to reach a billion children in the next 20 years by combining cutting-edge technology with proven learning science.
