As an educator and educational manager, if we don't think about what changes artificial intelligence will make in education today, it would be unqualified.
Old Proposition and New Starting Point:
The Adaptability of Education
What changes will artificial intelligence make to education, includingTwo "Old Propositions"
Firstly, artificial intelligence is beginning to change the world,How can education adapt to such changes?
Secondly, how about educationAutomorphism?
We still need to get to know each otherTwo 'new starting points'
Firstly,Artificial intelligence is more intelligent than all previous technologies?
Secondly,The goal of education has become higher.?
Two new starting points are prerequisites for us to consider the changes in artificial intelligence and education, and of course, we still need to fully consider themTwo sets of dialectical relationships
Firstly, we explore the relationship between education and technology, with three key words:
Firstly,?withwith
Secondly,We need to pay attention to how education and technology are integrated, and how to further integrate at two new starting points.
Thirdly, promote.?
Secondly, what we need to consider is the dialectical relationship between "change and invariance".
'Change and immutability' is something that educators always adhere to,???
Artificial Intelligence Value Alignment:
Automorphism
Musk called on people to be vigilant about the potential impact of artificial intelligence on human development. At the Bund Innovation Conference, Academician He Jifeng from East China Normal University mentioned that introducing artificial intelligence technology into education is important. UNESCO has released the "Guidelines for Generative Artificial Intelligence in Education and Research".I think when discussing the "change" between artificial intelligence and education, education is the first thing we need to consider.
The goal of education remains unchanged, and the core of education is to cultivate people. The fundamental task of education is to cultivate virtue and cultivate people. At the same time, we need to think carefully,?with?
??Change the definition of 'talent'.What we need to think about is,??
We are discussing how artificial intelligence affects education today and tomorrow, and one important thing is thatPay attention to the effectiveness of the change.From the perspective of talent cultivation, look at what kind of artificial intelligence is needed in today's and tomorrow's education.The starting point of our thinking should be: what kind of artificial intelligence do we need to help us implement more effective education.
Creating a virtual immersive learning environment, providing supportive and auxiliary intelligent educational tools for teachers' teaching, discovering students' learning habits based on data, timely evaluating and providing feedback on students' problems, and providing students with richer, diverse, and more personalized learning resources... These are the changes that we have already applied in education and teaching, brought about by artificial intelligence. So,?
Firstly,So that we don't have to repeat training.
Secondly,?with
Thirdly, promote educational equity.This has been well confirmed through the development of educational information technology, such as remote synchronous classrooms, the promotion of high-quality educational resources, and so on.
Fourthly, discover and cultivate talents without any constraints.Our current education is class oriented and large-scale, and we basically follow this path from preschool to university. And I believe that how artificial intelligence can help us discover and cultivate talents in tomorrow's education is a very important proposition.
We talked about two new starting points.?with?
Firstly,
?
2000?with?
Last year, the OECD released the "Education Policy Outlook 2022", which proposes to change the learning path and emphasizes the need to respond to changes in artificial intelligence. In the future, we should create diverse learning paths for learners.
I think that a diverse learning path is actually the most fundamental institutional guarantee for personalized learning. Perhaps artificial intelligence can help us fulfill our educational dream of teaching students according to their aptitude. But I can only use 'perhaps' because for a super large education system, this is indeed a challenge.
Secondly,
When we consider the impact of artificial intelligence on tomorrow's education, we need to consider whether there may be some qualitative changes in our teaching and learning paradigm, research paradigm, and educational management paradigm based on the support of artificial intelligence.
Thirdly, we need to explore analysis and decision-making based on education big data.
????
Explore the unknown:
The "Invariance" of Education
?We also need to persist in cultivating students' ability to explore the unknown, which is something we not only remain unchanged but also need to enhance now.

Finally, I would like to discuss an old question:??with
When degrees have already experienced inflation, their main value is to re invest in the education market, in order to obtain higher degrees. In theory, this is an endless process. It is entirely possible for us to become like the Ming and Qing dynasties in China, where students kept taking the imperial examination until the age of thirty or forty; but now this situation may affect the vast majority of people, not just a few elites
When discussing the changes in artificial intelligence and education, I would also like to emphasize that,The educational powerhouse we are building must not be a diploma powerhouseBecause we have seen the lesson from the past.
