What did we learn from this activity?

"We’re limited by the tools we choose, have access to, and know how to use. The better we understand and select the right tools, the better our results will be."

Statistics - AI in Education

AI tools are becoming common in teaching, especially for grading and lesson planning. However, many teachers need more training to use them effectively. Schools should invest in training to help teachers fully use AI to support students.

As teachers, we don’t always know about every tool out there, and even if we do, we might not have the budget or the support to use them. It’s something that needs to be worked on by both school leaders and teachers together.

The key is working as a team to make sure everyone has what they need to succeed.

Case Study AI Tools in the Classroom
Practical Applications and Teacher Insights Feb 2024 - Aug 2024

• Objective: To analyze how AI tools assist teachers across various tasks.

• Methodology: I collected qualitative data through interviews meetings with about 20 teachers.

• Analysis: I evaluated how each AI tool performs on specific educational tasks.

• Results: Document with findings to identify each tool's strengths and weaknesses for educational use.

Case Study AI Tools - Images
Comparison of Image Generation Features in AI ChatGPT 4,
Gemini, and Midjourney for Practical Use - FEB 2024

Mengyun (Mia) Hu Senior Applied Scientist

• Objective: To compare image generation capabilities of ChatGPT-4, Gemini, and Midjourney in practical applications.

  Methodology: Data was collected by generating images with the same prompts across each AI tool and assessing the outcomes.

  Analysis: The performance of each AI was compared based on image quality, creativity, and how well the generated images matched the prompts.

  Results: A summary of the findings showed differences in artistic style, accuracy, and complexity, with Midjourney excelling in artistic rendering and Gemini being more accurate, while ChatGPT-4 provided a balanced approach.
