OpenAI recely published a free training course for teachers to iroduce artificial ielligence-based tools to create curriculum and ieractive training for studes, but some teachers still do not have a positive opinion of this technology and its poteial.
Using chatbots to create educational coe is one of the useful applications of artificial ielligence for studes and their teachers. In this regard, the OpenAI company has recely released a free online course in which it teaches teachers how to use their chatbot as well as how to use it for education. This course was developed in collaboration with the non-profit organization Common Sense Media, which works closely with the artificial ielligence gia.
According to OpenAI, in the special course for teachers, 9 topics are covered in one hour and all the basic principles of artificial ielligence and its educational applications are covered. It is said that this training course is also implemeed in several schools in the United States, and according to an iernal survey, 98 perce of the participas managed to find new ideas and strategies for teaching studes with the help of artificial ielligence.
What problems does the use of artificial ielligence cause for teachers?
Artificial ielligence models have limitations and cannot be fully relied on; For example, ChatGPT cannot accurately evaluate stude performance. This must be done under the supervision of the teachers themselves. Some educators believe that the normalization of the use of artificial ielligence in schools can create challenges, and perhaps many are unaware of the ethical complexities of this issue. In addition, protecting children’s privacy is one of the concerns that must be addressed; Otherwise, it can cause relatively big problems.
Teachers’ use of data is another problem that teachers have with artificial ielligence; For example, ChatGPT can be used to design stude assignmes, but the output data remains on OpenAI servers and can be used for training later models or for commercial use. Although the company’s website states that people’s data is not used to make money, there is nothing wrong with using it iernally to improve artificial ielligence models. Also, maybe in the future we will see a change in policies and the data created by users will become a source of income for companies.
It seems that OpenAI has a special focus on the field of education and was to overtake its competitors in this field. The company recely hired one of the former senior managers of the Coursera platform, who has years of experience in providing online training. Also this spring, we saw the launch of a new subscription for ChatGPT called Edu, which is aimed at studes and the academic community. According to forecasts, the educational artificial ielligence market could reach a value of 88.200 billion dollars by the next decade, but for now it is growing slowly due to pessimism about new tools.
