My 5 Point Knowledge Capsule is given below on How AI is revolutionizing education for a new generation
- The new generation is Gen Z: Generation Z (Gen Z) are the digital natives who have grown up in a world of the internet, social media, smart TV, and mobile phones and are highly comfortable using technologies. Gen Z is entrepreneurial and independent. They value diversity and inclusion; they are environmentally aware. They are also highly confident and, at a few times, demonstrate more knowledge than experienced professionals due to abundant information/knowledge acquired from the internet and other channels. Their tolerance levels are generally low, and they react to situations instantaneously.
- AI-Driven Personalized Learning: AI algorithms can analyse student performance data in real time and advise customized learning paths. AI algorithms also create the learning content per the performance trends by focusing on the areas that need improvement and designing a suitable learning kit for each student. This type of learning would engage students without overwhelming them with too much content.
- Virtual Classrooms: With the invention of Virtual Reality, Augmented Reality, and Metaverse, students can get highly immersive experiences as if they were in the real world, which, in reality, is a created virtual world. For example, suppose an engineer wants to learn more about an electric motor. In that case, the digital twin of the electric motor can be made available within Metaverse. Using AI, the students can simulate electric motors to experiment with different scenarios and see the real-time effect. With AI, students can also predict the potential failures of digital twin of electric motor and learn the solutions.
- Automated Grading and Feedback: AI tools can automate grading assignments and exams, providing immediate ratings and detailed recommendations on why the grading is low and what actions to take to improve it. This helps the students to enhance their learning and performance.
- Interactive Smart Boards and Displays: AI-powered smart boards provide more interactive and engaging lectures. These boards can display dynamic content reacting to voice commands and provide accurate content using Generative AI tools, providing an interactive experience to students.
