Explain how machine bots work. How might unintended bias impact what machine bots may produce as “results?”
Machine bots (basically internet robot) are designed and programmed to perform certain tasks. Machine bots work to constantly check things to see if they follow a certain rule or pattern with minimal human interactions. Over time and with enough data the bot becomes increasingly accurate. Unintended bias may impact what machine bot produce based on the limited interactions and what information is presented to them. Therefore, the more data used, the more accurate results can be. However, depending on the type of information and data provided to a bot, there may be unintentional biases that emerge. If a bot is trained by limited data or by a specific network, results could be skewed.
How can tools like Khanmigo help teachers in the classroom? What are your thoughts about using AI as a teacher assistant or tutor for your classroom?
Khanamigo is a computer teacher assistant or tutor for students. Khanmigo offered 3 different ways to aid in the classroom. It could create a Class Snapshot, "Refresh My Knowledge" on a subject and Co-Create Rubrics. Class Snapshot takes a look at your students' progress over the past 7 days. It can showcase students that have mastered a subject, group students that may need additional support and celebrate students who have reached a specific level. It can even draft progress reports and emails to parents. It works quickly to process and generate informationIn. As a result, what may have taken hours to review grades on Schoology, group students and sift through exit tickets, Khanmigo did in seconds. I could see using Khanmigo's Co-Create Rubrics to help students see what is expected for a particular writing piece or short response.I like to let students know the requirements of a task before they begin to ensure their work meets the requirements. It would be useful if it could also use it to create a checklist for students as well.
