TAX PLANNING TIPS
Written by Dennis W. Futch, E.A. 229-985-0176
SHARPEN YOUR AI TOOLKIT FOR THE UPCOMING SCHOOL YEAR
Artificial intelligence got pushed front and center in America's class- rooms with the release of ChatGPT in late 2022. As a new school year gets underway, here are some ideas for both students and teachers to harness the power of AI in the classroom.
AI Tips for Students
• Get personalized feedback. Real-time feedback can help stu- dents master a subject in a shorter amount time and provide learning recommendations based on that student's strengths and weak- nesses. Consider this app: Cognii gives students real-time feedback on assignments and uses conver- sational technology to help stu- dents learn at a quicker pace.
• Learn with simulations. Using simulations and gamification to learn a complicated subject can help reinforce critical thinking skills while mastering difficult areas such as STEM subjects. Consider this app: Querium provides personal- ized short-form lessons and practice tests in STEM subjects. The app also
has a virtual tutor that gives tar- geted support when needed to keep a student on track.
• Understand the Why. Technol- ogy can help you quickly find or cal- culate an answer, but it's also important to understand the why behind an answer. AI can not only help you find the answer to a ques- tion or a problem, but also explain to you why that answer is the cor- rect answer. Consider this app: Car- negie Learning uses adaptive learning to re-create the human tu- toring experience while helping stu- dents understand a subject's underlying concepts.

How educators think AI will af- fect teaching and learning
In your view, what kind of impact will artificial intelligence platforms such as ChatGPT have on K-12 teaching and learning over the next five years?
hours a week, but only spend 25 hours directly teaching students, according to the 2022 Merrimack College Teacher Survey. Automat- ing time-consuming tasks such as generating progress reports or drafting emails can help you focus on what really matters - spending more direct time teaching your stu- dents. Consider this app: Fetchy has more than 50 tools, such as list gen- eration, organizational tools, text re- minders, and an AI advice engine to help teachers stay on top of their daily tasks.
• Get help with grading. Another time consuming task for teachers is grading. AI can act as a grading as- sistant by providing a draft score for an assignment. You can then review these draft scores and make any ad- justments before finalizing the grade. Consider this app: Grades- cope helps teachers grade assign- ments quickly and consistently while still allowing for detailed feed- back. This app can tackle math, computer science, physics, eco- nomics and more in all types of for- mats including paper-based, digital and code assignments. The goal is to cut your grading time in half!
While most of the information in the news regarding AI is about how to avoid writing your own papers, AI if applied correctly can be used to save time while enhancing the learning experience.
