In the era of artificial intelligence, how does education become the “tide setter” of artificial intelligence?

In 2016, artificial intelligence became popular. It was recognized by the industry as another major opportunity and challenge after the Internet and mobile Internet, and will become the “hydropower and coal” in various fields and become a major support for the industry. Artificial intelligence such as tide, so education how to do artificial intelligence “tide”? Let’s take a look!

What is the most high-tech learning style in the world for students right now?

IBM developed Jill Watson, a robot teaching assistant, to answer questions from students in Georgia Tech’s knowledge-based ARTIFICIAL Intelligence online course, who didn’t realize Jill was intelligent. It should be said that it can represent the current high level of artificial intelligence in education application, it brings machine intelligence into the cognitive era. This has led developers to believe that artificial intelligence can be used to achieve personalized learning at scale. Of course this is the advanced sex that considers study only from technical content.

Actually, the advanced sex that considers education only from technical level, rather be biased. For example, influenced by information technology, the educational community is also talking about “Internet plus education”. To be honest, there is a suspicion of following blindly. The idea behind the so-called “Internet Plus” is to infiltrate information technology into all industries and change the structure and production mode of industries, especially in the service sector. In the field of education, convenience brought by technology is necessary, but convenience is not the core value of education, but the core value is to create good learning and development experience for students. Therefore, the adoption of technology in education is naturally “slow” because education has never been changed solely according to the needs of technology.

What fundamental changes have artificial intelligence made to human learning?

In terms of learning methods, artificial intelligence enables learners to learn through various channels at any time and space, and acquiring knowledge is no longer limited to school education. In terms of cognitive mode, cognition is in a distributed state, that is, cognition occurs not only in the mind, but also in the interaction between people and intelligent tools. In terms of educational relations, it breaks the balance of educational knowledge dissemination, weakens the authority of educators, and strengthens the student-centered relationship. In terms of system ecology, virtual tutors, virtual learning partners, virtual teams, virtual coaches and virtual class mates provide intelligent agents for behavior subjects, changing the interaction between learning subjects and learning environment, and changing the learning ecology. In terms of learning opportunities, the open learning resources provided on the Internet can be widely shared, which greatly increases the learning opportunities for people to contact high-quality resources.

Many people say that “technology leads education reform”. What are the essential changes that technology brings to education?

I quite agree with the statement that “technology promotes educational reform”, which shows the importance of advanced educational concepts leading educational reform. In essence, technology is first and foremost empowered by human beings (for their designers and creators) and, in turn, empowered by technology (for ordinary users), enabling ordinary people to go from the impossible to the possible, from the small to the great.

“The rationale for technological change in Education:

First, because technology changes the space-time structure of human activities, it will change the way people learn.

Second, because technology provides a wealth of information representation or expression forms, it will change the cognitive way of learners.

Thirdly, technology changes the social subject structure, participation mode and ownership of information resources of human information activities, thus changing the educational relationship between participants.

Fourth, technology changes the ecosystem of learning by providing intelligent agents of behavior.

Fifthly, technology makes learning resources infinitely reproducible and widely accessible, which can greatly increase people’s learning opportunities.

What are the current teaching methods related to information technology?

In the field of educational technology, big data predates four research paradigms: computer-assisted instruction (CAI), with computers as teaching assistants; Intelligent tutor system; Use computers as tutors; Let children use Logo language to teach computers. Originated from artificial intelligence, intelligent teaching system mainly focuses on systematic teaching ability in the early stage, but in the era of big data, it pays more attention to learning services, thus adding two new elements of personalized and adaptive learning, which is very consistent with the fifth emerging paradigm of personalized adaptive learning.

With the development of artificial intelligence deep learning technology, a sixth paradigm — machine autonomous learning is emerging in educational technology. If it does, people will realize that since robots based on knowledge algorithms can easily surpass our logical thinking ability, why not turn students to critical thinking and creative thinking development? Why not increase the performance evaluation of the college entrance exam by using more questions on comprehensive ability to solve real problems? At this time, the real significance of technology promoting educational reform becomes more obvious.
