Gathering the Community at Writable’s Personalized Learning and Pedagogy
One of the most exciting aspects of AI in education is its ability to personalize learning. By analyzing student data, AI can identify trends and provide tailored support that caters to diverse learning styles. This personalization ensures that every student receives the attention they need to succeed.
Privacy and Authentic Learning
Dr. Ray also stressed the importance of protecting student privacy while using AI. AI tools must comply with state and national privacy laws to safeguard student data. Additionally, these tools should promote authentic learning experiences rather than replacing the teacher’s role.
