AI Applications in Education

Jul 21, 2019News

As artificial intelligence (AI) becomes an increasing part of our daily lives, it’s no wonder that educational institutions are racing to catch up with the need to develop more talent to keep the engine of AI development running. Increasingly, educational institutions from elementary to higher education as well as adult and professional learning are being transformed by intelligent systems that are helping humans learn better and achieve their learning objectives.

AI systems are being used to tailor and personalize learning for each individual student. Through the power of machine learning based hyperpersonalization, AI systems are being used to develop a custom learning profile of each student and customize the training materials for each student based on their ability, preferred mode of learning, and experience. In addition to customized materials, AI systems are being used to augment tutoring with personal, conversational education assistants. These autonomous conversational agents can answer questions from students, provide assistance with learning or assignment tasks, and reinforce concepts with additional materials that can help reinforce the curriculum.

Regarding to AI applications in Education, Michael Dukakis Institute (MDI) is also working with universities and think tanks to share the commitment to the constructive and development of AI for avoiding bias and obtaining core ethical values in the school system and society in general.
