Are you curious about the future of education and how technology is shaping the way we learn?
In this episode of the Better Learning Podcast, we embark on a fascinating journey into the world of project-based learning (PBL) and artificial intelligence (AI) with special guest David Ross. Join us as we delve into thought-provoking questions that unravel the potential of AI to revolutionize the classroom experience.
Takeaways:
David Ross has a background in sports writing and transitioned to become a teacher, with a focus on project-based learning (PBL).
COVID-19 has challenged the notion that physical attendance in school is inevitable, leading to the exploration of alternative learning options.
AI has the potential to empower teachers by saving time on administrative tasks and providing personalized learning experiences.
Teacher training in AI and prompt engineering is crucial for effective implementation in the classroom.
The current landscape of AI in education is still in the early stages, with a wide range of products and possibilities. AI can assist teachers in designing curriculum and writing projects for project-based learning (PBL).
AI has the potential to upskill students and provide equitable educational opportunities, particularly for schools in economically disadvantaged areas or rural areas.
The use of AI in various fields, such as chatbots, graphics, and video, can enhance the learning experience for students.
Virtual reality experiences can level the playing field for students who don't have access to resources like museums or science centers.
Anchoring projects in the local community can engage students and make learning more relevant and meaningful.
David Ross is the former Senior Director of the Buck Institute for Education (now PBLWorks), where he wrote the PBL Starter Kit and created and directed the PBL World Conference. David later worked in Washington DC as the CEO of the Partnership for 21st Century Learning, where he coordinated the bipartisan 21st Century Learning Caucus in the United States House of Representatives.
