exciting but in many schools around the
world like here in German You' be happy
just to find a working computer still
Innovative methods of teaching are being
tested all the time studies show that
students using VR and AR are more
Curious and more engaged they also seem
to learn more in comparison to a
traditional classroom environment
experts predict that the global market
for VR in education will grow from about
8 billion EUR in 2022 to more than 42

walk through a heart or things like that
so really really useful for children's
deeper understanding of of what they're
studying for teachers this opens up many
new
possibilities we've used virtual reality
across every subject as part of our
pilot for virtual reality some of the
most impressive things we can do are
science experiments that would otherwise
be impossible or too dangerous do in a

Innovation humans and machines treading
new ground
together chat GPT has also opened up new
avenues in education released in
November 2022 this AI tool had more than
1 million users in just 5 days but
what's so special about it here are
three tips on how you can make the most
of this
chatbot no time to read a full article
chat GPT can summarize it just copy and
paste the link and ask the AI chatbot to
write up some bullet
points the topic is too complex to
understand ask the chatbot to break it
down for you step by step you're having
trouble with research chat GPT can help
find sources or give you a general
overview but beware chat gpt's training
data can quickly become outdated
although developers are experimenting
with search features that include
current events they're only available to
paid subscribers and don't forget every
answer provided by chat GPT needs to be
fact checked and students especially
should take note universities are
currently debating if and how AI tools
like chat GPT should be used in the
future and how that might change our
understanding of authorship completely
Banning AI tools is probably not going
to work
though the best solution is not to ban
AI Technologies but instead to determine
with students the most effective methods
to create high quality
texts and that doesn't simply mean
letting AI write the text instead
students could work with the AI to
develop several iterations of a text and
then flesh out their own arguments with
the help of this AI
tool artificial intelligence is
basically like a giant toolbox if you
know how the tools work and which to use
to fix a specific problem it can be
really useful at doel we do not
currently publish any journalistic work
produced from generative AI but DW is
looking for ways to responsibly harness
the potential of so-called large
language
models when it comes to comment
moderation on social media can chat GPT
help write a program that generates
replies or filters out offensive or
discriminatory comments we turn to the
chatbot to try and do just
that I can say I have no idea of coding
for example which is what we did and it
will reply okay let's help you with
that and it worked in no time one team
had managed to create a prototype with
the help of chat
GP I'm a journalist right I'm not a
coder but I can do these things because
I get help with AI and
um it's it's just expanding your
capabilities the journalists give
directions as to what the program should
do and the AI bot writes the
code I asked for a code it gave me a
code but I had no idea how the code
works it's just numbers and like no
digits to me some alphabets to me but I
I don't know how It produced you know
what's the idea behind the code all
these things so I don't really imagine
it to be a teacher but definitely I'm
very sure it will help
you Benjamin Parson cautions against
viewing AI tools as independent and
autonomous I don't think of AI tools as
their
equals AI aren't conscious human beings
they're tools that can support us in our
work and I believe teamwork between
humans and AI supporting educational
technology these AI tools can be more
effective and produce a higher quality
output than either humans or AI tools on
their
own but there's more to digital learning
than AI so-called edutainment apps are
fun but also informative loveand for
example is used for sex education
questions on this topic aren't always
easy to ask and answers from the
internet aren't necessarily
correct these students in Cape Town have
a special assignment today they're
testing out the entainment game love
land we need young people to help us to
create the game give us critical
feedback and say oh this is really
boring oh and this is really
cool the game deals with a difficult
topic amongst teenagers sex education
without the stigma or the shame in the
game users need to complete levels on
different islands that each stand for an
issue of their own like contraception or
mental health 14-year-old cele and her
friends have already tested the app the
thing that I like about the app it it is
not offensive um it is you you learn but
you're also playing at the same time
game doesn't only focus on sex because
it also focuses on uh boosting people's
lows boosting people's self-esteem kyen
Sterling has tested the app in many
countries she realized is that teenagers
around the world usually have the same
questions and they often trust
misinformation from the
internet I experienced them very
interested and very eager to learn but
you need to give them the space same
space that's what we try to make with L
land um with only proper and age
appropriate information the long-term
consequences of luck of sexual education
are often very hard and uh kicks them
out of economy and so life cele agrees
that there's a lack of proper sex
education in her community South Africa
is for parent to teach you about sex uh
and that's why you find um many
teenagers in South Africa and having
these uh diseases and uh getting
pregnant you are told to not have sex
but they don't tell you the consequences
and we as teenagers we want to know if I
were to do this what would happen and
you end up trying to do so you know
edutainment apps are successful because
they incorporate playful Elements which
can reinforce learning the school
director is pleased his pupils are
taking part I want them to be the
Pioneer so that when they master that
it's going to be actually easy for our
school to adopt that game as a way of
learning and create awareness when it
comes to sexual education for the
teenagers this means learning by
playing digital learning opens up new
possibilities so will human instructors
become obsolete in the future I for one
I'm skeptical could you imagine learning
new things with only a computer and AI
or would you prefer human support let us
know what you think bye-bye
