Artificial Intelligence: Implications for the Future of Education

Artificial Intelligence: Implications for the Future of Education | Information and digital literacy in education via the digital path | Scoop.it
Have you noticed more discussion recently about Artificial Intelligence or AI? When first hearing “Artificial Intelligence” is there an image that pops into your mind? Is it something that you can easily define? Perhaps your understanding/reference point is something you’ve seen in the movies. For myself, being an 80s child, my initial frame of reference is Star Wars, I immediately think of R2D2 or C3PO. My mind then wanders to thoughts of “I, Robot” starring Will Smith, in which the robots developed the capacity to think like humans, to feel and to take action on their own.

Age of Aritificial Intelligence: How We’re Already Living In a Sci-Fi Future

Age of Aritificial Intelligence: How We’re Already Living In a Sci-Fi Future | Information and digital literacy in education via the digital path | Scoop.it
While we may not be nearing the Singularity, AI has taken leaps and bounds of improvement over the past few years alone. AI is making our lives easier with speech recognition and image identification, rather than turning against us like in so many sci-fi flicks.

Could AI replace teachers? 10 ways it could? | Donald Clark Plan B

Could AI replace teachers? 10 ways it could? | Donald Clark Plan B | Information and digital literacy in education via the digital path | Scoop.it
Teachers are not ends-in-themselves, they are always a means to an end - improvements in the learner. Given this premise, could it be possible to eventually replace teachers with AI technology? This may not happen soon but let’s, as a thought experiment, ask whether it could. Obvious points are that AI is 24/7, fast, scalable and cheaper. This gives it a head start. 

But could it teach? First, we need to break down the functions of teaching and learning. I have used a PGSE schema as my starting point, supplemented by other learning tasks.

Artificial intelligence will change higher education - University World News

Artificial intelligence will change higher education - University World News | Information and digital literacy in education via the digital path | Scoop.it
The image we have of job losses caused by technological advances is anchored in the popular cliché of the Luddite revolt in the weaving industry. So it is not surprising that most of our thinking about the impact of artificial intelligence systems, including robots, seems to focus on the idea of job displacement, primarily in the manufacturing and trade sectors.

For the most part, the ‘professions’ are seen as largely immune from such disruptions and dislocations and the idea that they might be disrupted is often dismissed because it is argued that the professions are dependent on highly personal, highly individual demands.

Yet almost all professions, including education, have been significantly affected as a result of the explosion of the knowledge economy even prior to the rise of the Internet and artificial intelligence.

The Realities of Artificial Intelligence and Adaptive Learning | Information and digital literacy in education via the digital path | Scoop.it
Feature post by Clark Quinn There’s been quite the spate of discussion of late about Artificial Intelligence (AI) and adaptive learning.  You’ve no doubt seen the commercials where Watson conducts conversations with talents from Bob Dylan to teacher Ashley Bryant, the latter in which great learning outcomes are proposed. And I think it’s important to …

10 Roles For Artificial Intelligence In Education

10 Roles For Artificial Intelligence In Education | Information and digital literacy in education via the digital path | Scoop.it

For decades, science fiction authors, futurists, and movie makers alike have been predicting the amazing (and sometimes catastrophic) changes that will arise with the advent of widespread artificial intelligence. So far, AI hasn’t made any such crazy waves, and in many ways has quietly become ubiquitous in numerous aspects of our daily lives. From the intelligent sensors that help us take perfect pictures, to the automatic parking features in cars, to the sometimes frustrating personal assistants in smartphones, artificial intelligence of one kind of another is all around us, all the time.
