AI based Adaptive learning helpful for students

It refers to a type of learning where students are given customized resources and activities to address their unique learning needs. For example, if a student struggles with adding fractions, a teacher might offer 1:1 tutoring or additional practice problems. You can see the concept of adaptive learning play out in gaming. Human intelligence, living conditions, environment – these vary between student to student and are critical in a student’s learning cycle.

This is where technology, especially AI can help in rendering content that is catered to the need of the student, either in schools or even in corporate setups. Together with immersive technologies and AI, data on individual student’s learning pace and ability can be collated in a cost-effective way, and shared to make learning enjoyable, f...

Defining the arts as language, social sciences and humanities, STEAM promotes the importance of creative thinking when approaching STEM projects. By incorporating an ‘A’ and thus the arts into STEM, proponents argue that it creates a well-rounded reflection of contemporary curriculum. How are they the same? It may appear obvious, but parallels run between STEM and STEAM through their mutual promotion of science-based learning. Both approaches signi...
