In current scenarios, we all have seen the growth of the EdTech industries. Even after Covid-19, we can say that the growth is doubled. There are many reasons behind this growth; one of them is artificial intelligence has found many gaps to fill. However, the impact of AI is huge across industries. According to Statista, the AI market is expected to reach USD 126 billion by the end of 2025.
A market and Markets report says that AI in EdTech is expected to grow to 3.68 billion USD by the end of 2023. These statics are sufficient to show EdTech’s reliability on AI. Especially, AI has found various use cases in online education systems. AI enables the industry right from delivering content to assessments and enhancing the learning experience. Here are the top applications of AI using which AI is helping EdTech to get more advanced.
Customise learning journeys
We find various unique values regarding learners’ interest and motivation to learn a subject. When we look back at the traditional approach to educational systems, they have been standardised for a long time because it was challenging to make them personalised for individuals. Nowadays, AI approaches have made it easy to create custom-tailored courses of learning based on learners’ behaviour observation and interpretation.
AI systems can find out the learning gaps based on the performances of learners, as well as these can also find them based on their behaviour in a classroom. As we all know, personalisation has been the KPI of many businesses here, and it plays a significant role in collecting huge audience engagement and focus.
Because of personalisation, learners get enabled to set up the pace of learning and ensure that they are on the right track of their learning journey.
Automated Assessments
Nowadays, we can see the impact of AI on grading because its use can be seen in both quantitative tests (multi-choice questions) and qualitative assessments (essay-based tests). This use of AI saves teachers time on grading and eliminates the chances of divergences based on favouritism and any other kind of corruption.
In addition, we also get facilitated with understanding the impact and effectiveness of learning programs based on group levels. This analysis can make us stand out from the ground if changes in the curriculum become in the appropriate direction.
AI Teaching Assistants
One of the most excellent applications of AI is adaptive chatbots, which can be utilised here as a teacher’s assistant in online programs. Just assume that there is a chatbot that can interact with the learners and clarify many basic doubts. At the same time, they are capable enough to create multiple real-time stages to let learners evaluate their understanding.
However, human teachers are a great way to teach anything, but they come with a working bandwidth and are incapable of always being available. This causes a gap and also an opportunity for AI to make a bridge. They can be available all the time and give freedom to learners using which they can approach them any time and get clarity.
Simplifying Non-Teaching tasks
Here, AI is not only to help the teachers and learners but also comes with many different use cases that are not core to teaching but are very helpful to run institutes easily. For example, using AI, we can easily handle records of students such as attendance, personal information etc., and teachers can be more focused on their teaching work. AI has also shown its capability in enrolment and admission processes so that more forces can get free.
Final Words
By looking at the above use cases, we can say the day is not so far where educators will need to rethink the learning journey and impact more students by giving extraordinary learning experiences, retention and focus. Furthermore, with the power of AI systems and tools, the EdTech industries can redefine the future and culture of education, where teachers and learners will be more focused on their actual work instead of being diverted because of too many other constraints or work.
