Artificial Intelligence in Education
Artificial Intelligence (AI) is rapidly transforming the landscape of education worldwide. From adaptive learning systems and intelligent tutoring platforms to automated assessment tools and data-driven personalisation, AI is reshaping how teachers teach and how learners learn. For teacher education institutions like Kaliammal College of Education, understanding the implications of AI in education is becoming an essential component of preparing future educators for 21st-century classrooms.
AI in education encompasses a broad range of applications including natural language processing for feedback generation, machine learning for identifying learning patterns, chatbots for student support, and predictive analytics for early identification of at-risk learners. Teacher educators must develop informed, critical perspectives on both the opportunities and the ethical challenges posed by AI integration in school settings.
Kaliammal College of Education encourages student-teachers and faculty to engage with current research, case studies, and policy discussions on AI in education, equipping them to thoughtfully navigate and contribute to the evolving educational technology landscape in India and beyond.
