Structured Prompting for Educators

Key Take Aways Structured prompting doesn’t produce perfect results, but it can have a significant positive impact on the quality of AI’s outputs. Think of AI as an apprentice. Assume it knows nothing. Give it very clear instructions on what to do, how to do it and in what sequence. If there are common errors you’re trying to avoid, tell it what it must NOT do as well as what it must do. AI needs you! You are the source of the context, instructions, details and input that AI needs to produce its best possible work.

K–12 value networks: The hidden forces that help or hinder learner-centered education

See on Scoop.it - Learning Futures on I.C.E. - Innovation, Creativity and Entrepreneurship The conventional model of schooling is outdated and overdue for replacement. As learners make their way through high school, survey results show that close to 66% end up disengaged. Those who successfully navigate the system gain a narrow set of academic skills that may or may not align with their individual needs, interests, and strengths. And as a side effect of conventional schooling, learners often form fixed mindsets about their abilities and see their value and identity through the narrow framing of academic ranking systems.

Deep Intelligence: Fostering Human Deep Learning, Amplifying Our Intelligence, and Supporting a Human Rennaisance by Stefan Bauschard, Sabba Quidwai :: SSRN

See on Scoop.it - AI in Education #AIinED This report looks at the growing gap between the attention paid to the development of intelligence in machines and humans. While computer scientists have made great strides in developing human intelligence capacities in machines using deep learning technologies, including the abilities of machines to learn on their own, a significant part of the education system has not kept up with developing the intelligence capabilities in people that will enable them to succeed in the 21st century. Instead of fully embracing pedagogical methods that place primary emphasis on promoting collaboration, critical thinking, communication, creativity, and self-learning through experiential, interdisciplinary approaches grounded in human deep learning and combined with current technologies, a substantial portion of the educational system continues to heavily rely on traditional instructional methods and goals. These methods and goals prioritize knowledge acquisition and organization, areas in which machines already perform substantially better than people.

The Near-term Impact of Generative AI on Education, in One Sentence – improving learning

See on Scoop.it - A Random Collection of sites Near term impact of AI on education: "Our current instructional design approaches assume that access to expertise is scarce, expensive, and delayed. That’s why we “capture” disciplinary expertise in “content” – so we can economically provide access to expertise to learners. But what if access to expertise was abundant, cheap, and immediate? If your students have access to the internet, that’s the world your students are now living in. How should that fact change the design of your instruction?"

Global AI Legislation Tracker

Countries worldwide are designing and implementing AI governance legislation commensurate to the velocity and variety of proliferating AI-powered technologies. Legislative efforts include the development of comprehensive legislation, focused legislation for specific use cases, and voluntary guidelines and standards. This tracker identifies legislative policy and related developments in a subset of jurisdictions. It is not globally comprehensive, nor does it include all AI initiatives within each jurisdiction, given the rapid and widespread policymaking in this space. This tracker offers brief commentary on the wider AI context in specific jurisdictions, and lists index rankings provided by Tortoise Media, the first index to benchmark nations on their levels of investment, innovation and implementation of AI.

ChatGPT can now access up to date information

OpenAI, the Microsoft-backed creator of ChatGPT, has confirmed the chatbot can now browse the internet to provide users with current information. The artificial intelligence-powered system was previously trained only using data up to September 2021. The move means some premium users will be able to ask the chatbot questions about current affairs, and access news. OpenAI said the feature would open up to all users soon.

Dashboard of Country Commitments and Actions to Transform Education | #LeadingSDG4 | Education2030

See on Scoop.it - Learning Futures on I.C.E. - Innovation, Creativity and Entrepreneurship

This Dashboard presents country commitments to transform education made at the occasion of the United Nations Transforming Education Summit in September 2022 and the actions undertaken since then.  The Summit was a historic event that elevated education to the top of political agendas at global, regional and country levels. Leading up to the Summit, 163 Member States convened national consultations and 141 countries* submitted their national statements of commitment to transform their education systems and invest in education (*as of September 2023).   The Dashboard aims to monitor countries’ actions undertaken against their national commitments (see Technical Note). It also facilitates cross-country learning and exchange of experiences and good practices in translating commitments into action, among all countries including those that have not submitted their statements of commitment. The commitments and actions are analyzed according to 9 overarching themes and 37 sub-themes, which represent the totality of commitments identified in countries’ statements.   Country actions will be collected and added to this Dashboard by early 2024, ahead of the Global Education Meeting.
