At #TouroGSE, we address the growing need for competent and compassionate educators in New York’s communities and schools. To take advantage of the opportunity to interact with the leaders from around the country who have successfully led their own programs through AAQEP accreditation, #TouroGSE’s educators participated in the second annual AAQEP (Association for Advancing Quality in Education Preparation) Institute that has started in Utah this week. Dr. Charity Dacey shared her impressions from this event: “It’s been great to represent the #TouroGSE at the AAQEP institute this week in Salt Lake City with Valeisha Ellis, Ph.D. & Patricia Henry. What informative and engaging sessions with likeminded colleagues sharing ideas about continuous improvement. Thanks Christine DeGregory, Linda McKee, Mark LaCelle-Peterson, & Sunny Duerr. A bonus was a morning run, some beautiful views, and authentic Mexican food at the #rediguana thanks to Shirley Dawson from Weber State University. After completing our editing project together earlier this year, it was so wonderful to connect in person with a wonderful coeditor coauthor and great person.” #educationpreparation
“Forget robot teachers, adaptive intelligent tutors and smart essay marking software — these are not the future of artificial intelligence in education but merely a step along the way. The real power that AI brings to education is connecting our learning intelligently to make us smarter in the way we understand ourselves, the world and how we teach and learn. For the first time we will be able to extend, develop and measure the complexity of human intelligence — an intellect that is more sophisticated than any #AI. This will revolutionize the way we think about human intelligence. How do we build this intelligence infrastructure for education? Through the integration of big data about human behaviour, deep learning algorithms and our own intelligence to interpret what the algorithms tell us. We must leverage the science that has helped us to understand how humans learn, as well as the science that has helped us build machines that learn. Embrace today’s educational AI systems judiciously. Use them to learn as much as possible about AI. But remember that today’s AI is merely the start. The future is the use of AI to build the intelligence infrastructure to radically reform the way we value our own human intelligence.” - Rose Luckin is a UCL professor, co-founder of the Institute for Ethical AI in Education, and author of ‘Machine Learning and Human Intelligence: the future of education in the 21st century’ #aiineducation #futureofeducation #wednesdaywisdom
