One way I can use AI to support learning for all students in my classroom is through translation and text-leveling tools. As a history teacher, I often find great articles that are at a high school reading level that most of my students would not be able to read if provided. With a text leveler, I could use it to bring down the text level for my students so they still get access to a great source of information. I would use it with my multilingual learners as well to support their language development needs in the classroom.
AI can be used to help struggling students in the classroom. It can be programmed to support the students that need the extra help. It is sometimes hard to stop a lesson to help one student when you have the rest of the class moving ahead. I think AI would be a great help in these types of situations.
AI offers an opportunity for differentiation. Students could use it as a tutor so it can guide them through the assignment and provide additional support when needed.
I asked ChatGPT to provide some examples of how to include UDL and CRT elements to a lesson on calculating time of death. The ULD suggestions were to present the information in a variety of formats, students could listen to a podcast, watch a video or read a summary. they also could have several ways of completing the final project from creative writing, making a movie, create models of the various methods or I could create a game or fictional scenario. Ai here is beneficial to remind me when planning to mix up how to present information and various ways to assess learning. The CRT element suggested a class discussion on how cultural beliefs and practices could impact a forensic investigation. I am looking forward to trying this out.
AI can be used for developing and implementing UDL and culturally responsive strategies for all students. For example, I can use AI for generating specific feedback and assignments tailored for each student.
One way to support students in learning AI in the classroom is through translation. Some students speak a different language and using AI sites can support students in understanding a different language.
One way to use AI to support learning for all students is by using AI tools to provide personalized learning experiences that cater to diverse needs and cultural backgrounds. You can create lessons that you can present in different formats, such as written, audio, or video. you can also translate it into another language.
One way I can use AI to support learning for all students in my classroom is to use it to differentiate my lessons. AI can give me easy, medium, and hard problems that will allow me to meet my students where they are and challenge them to grow in their learning.
I can use AI to help support all learners. AI can help to extend learning or reinforce concepts to students that need more help. Using this AI for this specifically can help to close gaps and promote growth from our higher level students.
One way to incorporate AI to support learning for all students in my classroom is to encourage my students to use the AI writing tutor built into Writable. Some students have used it, but they don’t like that it gives suggestions and asks questions instead of writing or rewriting their work for them. I think demonstrating the AI writing tutor/help more often in class will help my students feel more comfortable with knowing how it guides them, not just “fixing” their work.
I did take my lesson plan for a cross-curricular STEM project (business plan for a mini-golf course) to Gemini and asked how to include UDL and CRT elements. It gave fantastic ideas for both, including allowing students to create a video to play in class if they were too shy to speak in front of the class and having students incorporate elements of their heritage into the different tees/holes on the course. All good ideas.
I can use AI to create personalized activities for each student. In combination with some of the new autograding capabilities and data tracking I could work with it to create assignments that target the specific skills that students are struggling with. Previously I could go back through something like a multiple choice test and notice a pattern of students selecting a certain incorrect answer, which would most likely be due to a specific misconception, and circle back to try to correct it. With AI this process would be far more efficient and targeted so every student is getting that feedback instead of just the students falling into larger general trends.
I think the first way I would utilize AI to support learning for all students in my classroom would be to model the different ways that they can utilize AI themselves to overcome challenges that they might be facing. Introducing them to tools that can translate resources into their native language, that can adjust the reading level to help them better understand main ideas and provide them access points to higher-level texts, and utilizing tutor prompts to help them get a personalized experience based upon their specific understandings and learning gaps. While I can use formative assessments to get a general idea of my students’ needs, putting these tools into their hands helps them take ownership of their learning in new ways while also giving me more time to work individually with students and facilitate their learning.
A.I can be used to differentiate for different students at varying skill levels. As an example, a student who may not be challenged by the standard curriculum could have an enhanced A.I one that aids that particular student’s level of learning.
I can create a prompt that will create coding practice for the students, but it will require students to input something that is interesting or relevant to them, it would then follow up with questions about the content to determine what their current level of understanding
