Leveraging AI Tools in the Classroom

As the world becomes increasingly digital and technology-driven, the education sector is also adopting cutting-edge tools to enhance learning experiences. These AI-powered resources not only can empower educators but also provide students with personalized and engaging learning experiences. In this blog post, we'll explore some current AI tools and their potential to transform the traditional classroom setting. Of course, with the pace that everything is changing in the AI space, be on the lookout for rapid change in this area!

Goblin.Tools

Goblin.Tools is a versatile AI-powered platform that promotes executive functioning and writing skills. There are various tools included in this website, including the Magic ToDo, Formalizer, Compiler, and many other tools. The compiler tool will take a brain dump of information and turn it into an actual todo list. Whereas the Magic ToDo will break down any task into smaller and smaller parts which helps with students’ ability to know the steps and possibly get started with tasks more easily. The formalizer tool can help students’ writing skills as a text can be adjusted to the level of formality needed.

Diffit.me

Diffit.me is an AI tool designed to take any text or website and transform it to meet the needs of any student. It can even generate a text about any subject to cater to special interests of students! This tool could be a gamechanger for teachers who spend precious time modifying classwork to account for varying reading levels in their classroom.

Reccap for YouTube

Reccap for YouTube is a captivating AI assistant that can help students understand video content for educational purposes. This tool serves as a valuable resource for educators looking to utilize media in various ways. Reccap gives an automatic summary of any video content (that has captioning) which then can be leveled to individual students’ reading levels.

As these tools continue to evolve, educators and students alike can benefit from their wide-ranging applications, ultimately shaping a smarter and more engaging learning environment. By embracing AI-powered resources, educators can effectively prepare their students for the challenges of the digital age while ensuring they are equipped with the skills necessary to thrive in an ever-evolving world.
