The Criterion AI tool is an incredible step forward for writing learning. This is not applicable in my elementary music room, but I realize the benefit. Grading, tutoring, and writing prompts are wonderful parts of this tool. I know I and other teachers are definitely impressed by the planning tools provided in Criterion that allow students to thoughtfully roadmap their writing pieces. Khanmigo would be an example I more willingly use, though I am not sure about the music education abilities in this AI quite yet. I am sure it will grow in this area very soon. Similar to Seesaw, which I am sure will be gaining AI capabilities soon, I will use Khanmigo for parent communication AI responding, keeping track of grading, and refreshing knowledge on certain areas students are exploring outside of my classroom. By using the refreshing knowledge portion, I can connect my music curriculum to writing and math curriculum to deeper student understanding and application.
