Artificial Intelligence and the future of
education
A
Artificial Intelligence (AI) is becoming more common in
every area of our lives. But what is the likely effect in the
classroom? Are we going to see the end of teaching as we
know it? Anyone who’s been in a classroom recently knows
that technology already plays a big role in education. A
range of systems have allowed students to access online
learning platforms. These platforms deliver teaching
material outside the traditional classroom. This means that
greater numbers of students can share a learning space
even when they are in very different locations. The
technological revolution seems to be here!
B
Most school students are very familiar with operating
technology and working with AI systems in their leisure time.
The majority of us would agree that children and teenagers
know more about technology than most adults. We also
know that understanding how to interact with AI systems is
going to be important for future employment. According to
recent reports, by 2055 around 50% of our jobs will have
been taken over by AI systems and robots. In many ways,
this seems to be a key skill in the 21st century. On top of
this, because AI systems can easily access large amounts
of information quickly, you might think that they offer the
perfect solution for education. But the fact is students don’t
always respond to AI teaching resources.

C
So, why is that? Well, one answer to this puzzle is what
computers can’t do. An important aspect of learning is
observing and imitating – human beings learn best with
other human beings. When we perform an action and when
we see someone else perform the same action, mirror
neurons in our brain respond equally. Mirror neurons are
a type of brain cells that play an important role in
human learning. If students are asked to learn from
teachers, the mirroring takes place. If students are asked to
learn from an AI system, this mirroring doesn’t happen.
Besides, teachers have skills and values that are uniquely
human. Computers are capable of levels of calculations we
could only dream of achieving with our minds alone. But
when a human teacher is able to show the benefits of
learning something, learners are more likely to be inspired
to work harder and make progress.
D
Another key feature of learning is empathy – understanding
how someone feels in a particular situation. When a student
loses focus, and doesn’t seem interested in what’s
happening in class, a teacher can read body language,
appearance and attitude to work out their emotional state.
Some AI systems that are being used with classroom robots
can do this too, but they find it difficult to understand the
needs or emotions communicated by a full classroom. Any
human teacher uses emotional information every day to
decide whether there is a reason to be worried, or not. They
look at how students usually respond; what is happening at
home, how students are relating to each other in the
classroom. For most AI systems, this level of understanding
is difficult. And despite progress, developers can’t imagine it
happening soon.

In which paragraph does the writer mention

1 a way that AI fails to match a human teacher’s caring
role? ___
2 the fact that students can be taught, but can’t truly learn
from AI? ___
3 a common belief about young people and technology?
___
4 ways of using technology to reach more people? ___
5 the influence of new technologies on working life? ___
