Hello people! It's me again. This week we were given one last task about artifical intelligence. This task was to use MagicSchool.ai and talk with an important figure in the history. Me and my friend Emircan (check out his blog as well!) spoke to Stefan Zweig, wrote a report on the conversation, got feedback from MagicSchool.ai feedback tool to improve our report and revised it. You can see the outcomes of the process below! (Most of them are too long so I have only put the links, sorry://)
The Feedback
(Please click on them, they are too long:/)
My Experience
As students, we have always used ai tools ever since they emerged and they have always helped us so we almost didn't have any hardships. The only hardship we faced was prompting. If you do not properly prompt the tool you may not be able to get the result you want. Other than that, my experience was very good and it was easy to use the tool for the most part because we did everything together with Emircan so it was pretty fast as well.
Advantages and Disadvantages
I think it has more advantages than disadvantages. It makes it easier to get the information. Not only that, it enables students to find only the "needed" information, excluding any irrelevant item. Also, access to these tools are very easy because a lot of them are free or has free trial just like MagicSchool. One possible disadvantage is that they have job-threatening features and they can replace humans in many fields in the future. But also, it they do not replace humans in the future but still advance, they can possibly enhance the teaching and learning experience even more than now. Another disadvantage is that it can make students lazier and this can diminish their success. It can be said that the amount of time ail tools are used is what determines their worth.
Would I Integrate AI Tools Into My Own Teaching?
I definitely would. This task definitely convinced me to use these tools in my teaching. Students may get bored in the class and may not want to listen to their teacher for 40 minutes. By giving them tasks that include AI tools may be a good revision of the subject; since young people, namely kids, love using technology and since the process is pretty fast they probably will not get distracted while performing the task. It diminishes the workload of the teacher as well. Language teachers can get brief information about cultural or historical contexts quickly if they want to include them in their class.
Final Thoughts
It was a great experience overall. Being able to talk to someone who is not present at the moment was a once in a lifetime experience. The feedback tool was also very easy to use and suggestions it made were proper. All in all I will definitely use these tools in my teaching and I believe that they have more advantages than disadvantages.
These were my thoughts and experience. What do you think? I am curious so please let me know! See you until next time, take care!
