Supercharged conversation using AI Assistants with an enthusiastic educator

You might assume that the world of elementary school teachers remains constant. However, I was pleasantly surprised after speaking with an enthusiastic 5th grade teacher who explained how Artificial intelligence (AI) has boosted her efficiency as an educator. Walking in the cool breeze along the banks of Lake Elizabeth in the cool breeze, she shared how AI has transformed her classroom, making her more efficient and enabling her to better support her students' learning journeys. Her understanding of the AI technology she uses in her classroom is not na?ve, as she understands that it's not magic but the result of collective human input and years of development.

"AI is helping me meet my goal for each of my students to move their level up, wherever I get them, move them up, and do whatever it takes."

So how is she using AI in her classroom?

• Personalized Welcome Letters: The teacher uses AI to draft personalized welcome letters for her students, incorporating specific details about her interests and classroom activities. She then extends the initial draft with additional specific questions to make it truly personalized, motivating the students to be excited about coming back to school after a long summer break.
• Creating rubrics and providing feedback to students: She uses AI Assistants to generate rubrics and providing detailed feedback on student writing. By inputting a rubric and student work, she can quickly identify strengths and areas for improvement, streamlining the feedback process.
• Book club discussions: In her classroom book clubs, she uses AI Assistants to generates discussion questions and vocabulary lists for different books, facilitating a more structured conversations among students.
• Math Differentiation: Her AI Assistant helps her create math problems based on individual student needs. Whether a student is working on basic addition or more complex graphing, AI is able to help her tailor word problems to suit the students learning level.

Enhanced Efficiency and Involvement

I was curious to know what the teacher does with the time she saves by using AI in her classroom for preparation and grading. She stressed that it is not just about saving time but about increasing efficiency and becoming more involved in students' learning. With AI handling repetitive tasks and generating ideas, she can focus more on personalized instruction and immediate student needs.

Inclusive Education

I marveled at her creatively on using AI to provide inclusive education, especially for students in Individualized Education Programs (IEPs). She is using AI to translate texts into various languages and personalized reading levels ensuring all students have access to the same learning material.

A Partner in Educational Success

Incorporating AI into the classroom doesn't mean removing the human element; rather, it enhances it. AI allows educators to be more responsive and supportive, ultimately fostering a more inclusive and effective learning environment. Her AI Assistant has become her trusted partner in helping her with the goal to raise students to the next level, no matter the starting point. I had a rewarding Sunday morning with a relaxing walk along the beautiful lake Elizabeth followed by a South Indian buffet brunch and talking to my smart and innovative cousin Shromila Gupta. Her 5th grade students are very lucky to have her as their classroom teacher.
