I think that right now, use of AI in the classroom faces a roadblock because teachers fear it or are skeptical of its use. I think that many teachers assume that it can only be used or is mainly used to cheat on assignments. Alternatively, I think that many teachers believe it is best  used (by them) to determine if a writing block was actually written by that particular student or by AI. 
I think that AI can be used to translate lessons/assignments for our ELL students, help scaffold/differentiate lessons for students of varying academic levels, and create interactive, inquiry based lessons to help students understand new, complex concepts. I know that AI is here to stay and if we embrace it and teach students to use it responsibly, it can be hugely beneficial in the classroom. 

  • What role does education have on the use of AI? 
I love that AI can be used to level the playing field for our students by helping us to create lessons with built in scaffolding/differentiation. I love that it can be used to help create interactive lessons/elements to help students grasp complex content and new content. As a science teacher, I think it can be used to create labs based on real-world uses/needs and discoveries.
