Google released a set of new AI-powered features for educators.

This week, Google released a set of new AI-powered features for educators. Here's the TL;DR:

🤖 Personalised Practice Sets: Educators can now use AI to turn existing teaching content into learning activities. These "practice sets" can be deployed through Google Classroom, where every student gets adaptive feedback and support, powered by AI.

🤖 Lesson Planning Co-Pilot: Duet AI helps teachers in developing lesson plans by giving feedback and making suggestions as they work in Docs, Slides etc. Duet AI can propose in-class activities, homework assignments, and assist in creating presentations with visuals in Slides.

🤖 Enhanced Video-Based Assignments: Building on a feature first released last year, educators can now use AI to rapidly suggest and generate questions within YouTube videos. They can also use a new in-built grading tool to access data on student performance to inform lesson planning.

🔭 What does this tell us about the future of education?

1. Increased Personalisation: If the last year is any indication, education is very likely to be an increasingly personalised experience, with AI tailoring learning experiences to individual needs & performance. Google's new features push us further down this path.

2. A Blended Approach: In a world where education content, activity & support is increasingly delivered online and supported by AI, what is the value & role of the physical, communal classroom and human teacher?

3. Educator Co-piloting: Google's education strategy indicates a future where AI acts as a co-pilot in education, assisting both teachers and students. AI tools are positioned to complement human skills, suggesting a collaborative, rather than replacement, model.
