From voice assistants to face recognition technologies, artificial intelligence has become part of daily life, without many even realising it.  It is no surprise that artificial intelligence has forayed into the education sector. Here are some of the changes that AI has brought to the education sector: 

Task automation: AI has been used in different industries to automate tasks and the education system is no exception. An LMS system comes handy in grading tests, evaluating homework, filing paperwork, making a progress report, organising resources and materials for lectures, managing teaching materials. Though not all tasks can be automated, artificial intelligence still helps in easing the workload when it comes to non-teaching tasks.

Personalised learning recommendation: There are many learning software that help students and teachers with personalised activity recommendation. The software recommends online games, quizzes and other activities based on student’s past performances. The software helps in highlighting topics that students have not mastered. This helps teachers in making personalised feedback based on the past performance of students. 

Smart content creation: AI can help teachers create smart content that makes teaching and learning more easier and effective. Using the LMS, teachers can make quizzes and tests on sub-topics. 

Visual learning:  It has been found that visual images along with text results in a deeper processing of the text. This benefits the overall understanding of learners.  Infographic generation, simulation and visualisation have become easy with the use of software with AI capabilities. 

Train the trainer:  Teaching is one profession where it is important that teachers are abreast with progressive learning techniques. With educational software, teachers can have access to comprehensive information available to them at their fingertips. Not just that, they can use such software to plan their class activities which are in-depth, interactive and at the same time fun. 

Identify classroom weakness: AI can complement the teacher’s work in a classroom by identifying the areas where the class is lagging behind. AI can help identify students who are skipping specific questions. By highlighting this, AI will alert teachers which topics need revision. This will encourage teachers to follow the best teaching practices.

24/7 assistance: While it is not possible for teachers to be present 24/7, there are many education AI-powered chatbots that can be helpful in connecting with students in real time. Students do not have to wait to meet teachers to get answers to basic questions.  These chatbots work like teachers’ assistants. 

The potential of artificial intelligence in education to enhance learning, assist teachers and ensure more effective personalised learning is huge. One such application of artificial learning can be seen in the form of learning management systems. In India, many schools have adopted ThinkRoom Programme that is backed by KidsLoop platform, an AI-driven interactive LMS. Chrysalis ThinkRoom is one of the best blended learning programmes that allows schools to use multimedia tools to make traditional classroom engaging and interactive. Not just that, it acts as a centralised platform. From storing learning materials in one location to conducting classes, from evaluating tests to sharing report cards with teachers, ThinkRoom programme is a go-to solution when it comes to conducting hybrid classes.
