The Enterprise LMS

AI has become a transformative tool, enhancing both teaching and learning experiences. Here’s how AI can revolutionize your courses and benefit your online instructors and students.

Teaching a Topic Convincingly

As a teaching assistant for a human instructor, AI can emulate the real instructor’s methods by interacting with students using leading questions. This approach encourages critical thinking and deeper understanding. The AI can manage discussions, guide debates toward course objectives, and adapt to the unique needs of each student, providing personalized instruction that mimics the nuances of human teaching.

AI is not best in replacing a human instructor. AI is best when used to augment a human instructor.

Managing Group Discussions and FAQs

AI systems can efficiently manage group discussions and FAQ forums. By analyzing previous interactions, AI can provide accurate and timely responses, keeping discussions on track and ensuring that common queries are addressed promptly. This capability frees up instructors to focus on more complex teaching tasks and helps maintain an engaging and informative learning environment.

Human teachers can monitor and contribute to the forum, and guide the AI.

Answering Content Questions

Students often have numerous questions about course content. AI can handle these inquiries swiftly and accurately, offering detailed explanations and additional resources as needed. This immediate support helps students stay on track with their studies and fosters a more interactive and responsive learning experience.

Online AI is available for questions 24/7. Human instructors can easily monitor the questions and answers, ensuring student satisfaction, while guiding the AI.

Marking Free Text Questions

Grading free text responses can be time-consuming for instructors. AI can assist by evaluating these answers based on predefined criteria, providing consistent and unbiased feedback. This automated grading helps ensure timely assessments, allowing students to quickly understand their performance and areas needing improvement.

A human instructor can intervene anytime and over-ride a mark given by AI, then satisfy the student with a corrective explanation, and take corrective action by guiding the AI for future similar situations.

Reviewing Test Results

AI can analyze test results, identifying patterns and trends in student performance. This analysis can lead to personalized study recommendations and encouragement, helping students focus on areas where they need the most improvement. By providing targeted feedback, AI supports students in their academic growth and development.

AI can alert human teachers and supervisors to student performance challenges.

Running Scenarios and Rating Performance

Simulated scenarios are an effective way to assess student understanding and application of knowledge. AI can run these scenarios, rate student performance, and offer detailed feedback. This capability allows for more dynamic and practical assessments, giving students hands-on experience and real-time evaluation.

Sample Role-Playing Scenario: Handling a Serious Sexual Harassment Complaint

Realistic role-playing scenarios are engaging, challenging, and also fun. Both for the students and human instructors, who can easily read the transcript of a played-out scenario to bring out teaching points.

Knowing Student Performance Stats

AI systems can track and store all student interactions, creating a comprehensive record of performance stats. This data is invaluable for generating detailed report cards for supervisors. The reports can highlight a student’s level of effort, strengths, and weaknesses, providing a clear overview of their progress and areas needing attention.

AI can quickly and conveniently write a report card for every student. After an easy review by a human instructor, this information can be provided to the student or the student’s employer.
