Deep dives
AI hype in education
This year is predicted to be the year of AI hype in education, with a focus on AI-powered tutor systems. These systems will be positioned as the solution to educational problems and offer personalized learning experiences. However, concerns arise around the narrowness of these systems and the risk-averse approach in education. The push for AI systems in schools may undermine the broader goals of education, such as fostering citizenship and critical thinking. The year 2024 is expected to be characterized by an overwhelming emphasis on efficiency rather than transformation, with AI hype overshadowing important educational considerations.
