The Personal Teaching Assistant Every Teacher Needs - Matthew Lynch, Tech Edvocate
Imagine teaching at a school where your personal assistant takes care of the routine tasks for your classroom. The assistant even prepares lessons for your students. You have additional time to instruct students in small groups or individually, provide thoughtful feedback, and encourage learning. “Socrates, set the thermostat to 74, take attendance, and open the PowerPoint from yesterday’s lesson.” Better than Siri or Alexa, your digital teaching assistant would handle routine and complex tasks related to the classroom and student need. That scenario isn’t too far-fetched. Schools are already implementing smart technology in the form of artificial intelligence, and AI is changing the education landscape.
