The Ministry of Education recently introduced the “digital transformation and artificial intelligence sector”, within its new organizational structure, followed by six central departments, with the aim of integrating artificial intelligence technologies in the educational process in a real way, and has not yet announced the date, mechanisms and controls of the application.
And the experts of artificial intelligence of «Emirates Today» monitored influential applications for artificial intelligence, which helps teachers to perform tasks with skill, accuracy and impressive results, in exchange for other applications for students that will bridge educational gaps and upgrade their knowledge level in various subjects.
While educators and teachers see the importance of integrating artificial intelligence in a real way within the components of the educational process, and they pointed out that despite the advantages of artificial intelligence, it raises the cost of learning, and needs modern equipment in schools.
On the occasion of the International Education Day, “Emirates Today” raises the question: “How can artificial intelligence be invested to improve the quality of education and develop students’ skills and all elements of the educational process?”
Experts, teachers and specialists talked about the paths of employing artificial intelligence in education, the most prominent challenges facing the educational field, and the most important applications in the educational process, while monitoring the views of parents and students.
In the details, the artificial intelligence expert, Dr. Mohamed Abdel -Zahir, explained the importance of employing artificial intelligence in education and its effects, saying: “Artificial intelligence is not just an auxiliary tool, but rather a key partner in improving the quality of education, as its applications help teachers prepare distinctive educational content, and at time The same virtual reality platform supports students with influential educational experiences. ”
He added: «Personal learning is one of the most prominent artificial intelligence applications, as its algorithms help analyze the student’s level and his needs to provide an educational plan specifically designed for it, for example, providing educational platforms such as (Dolningo) and (Khan Academy) dedicated educational paths, which enhances strengths It treats the weaknesses of learners. ”
He emphasized that the students ’tests no longer depend on the traditional evaluation only; Artificial intelligence is able to analyze answers accurately and quickly, providing detailed reports on students’ performance, and allows teachers to focus on improving the quality of teaching.
He explained that there are virtual assistance that constitute an effective path to enable students in searches and investigations, and to enable them to obtain accurate immediate answers to their inquiries, which enhances the process of self -learning, and artificial intelligence tools also help teachers organize their lessons, and answer students’ inquiries efficiently.
Explaining the capabilities of artificial intelligence tools in preparing smart educational content, he said that it contributes to creating interactive educational content, based on virtual and enhanced reality techniques, and students can explore complicated concepts, such as the human body or physical phenomena through overwhelming virtual experiences.
He emphasized that artificial intelligence techniques contribute to organizing academic schedules, follow -up students’ presence, and manage school data with high efficiency, which reduces the administrative burden on teachers.
And the expert of education, artificial intelligence and metaphystere, Dr. Sherine Moussa, monitored the effects of artificial intelligence in the quality of education, as he focuses on improving the level of educational and skill students’ performance, studies have proven that its use in education helps to improve the performance of learners in various stages of education, as it allows them to learn at a rate that suits Their capabilities while upgrading their skills, which reduces failure rates, and enhances academic excellence.
She stated that artificial intelligence is an effective tool for developing teachers’ skills by providing customized exercises and analyzing their performance in classrooms, and allows them to focus on teaching instead of preoccupation with administrative tasks.
She added that artificial intelligence is able to enhance critical and creative thinking among learners, by designing educational experiences that motivate them to solve problems and make decisions, and also contributes to developing creativity skills with technologies such as creating digital content.
She said that the metaphors is the education portal to innovative virtual worlds, where students and teachers enable indulging in an integrated interactive and interactive educational environments that combine realism and innovation, and it also allows the creation of virtual classes that simulate real experiences, such as visiting scientific laboratories or historical sites without the need to leave the house . Educational content can also be dedicated to fit with the needs of each student, which enhances understanding and stimulates interaction.
She stated that through metaphors, teachers can provide explanations in an interactive 3D, while students get an opportunity to learn through experience instead of traditional indoctrination. Despite the challenges related to the costs of technology and infrastructure, the investment of metaphors in education represents a promising step towards developing overwhelming educational environments, which meet the requirements of the future, and adopt a more creative and prepared generation for a changing world.
A number of educators, Dr. Fares Al -Jabour, Rana Hijazi and Khaled Abdel Hamid, stressed that despite the advantages of artificial intelligence, the educational field faces many challenges, most notably the lack of infrastructure, as technologies are available globally, but their application needs great equipment In schools with modern devices and strong internet.
They said: «Some educational tools based on artificial intelligence are expensive, which represents a burden on private schools, and leads to raising tuition fees, in addition to that artificial intelligence tools are sophisticated, and there is an urgent need for training programs that teachers can use efficiently, in addition to the need to develop legislation Strict to protect the privacy and safety of student data during the use of artificial intelligence techniques in education. ”
The teachers, Laila Ahmed, Ribal Ghassan, Wafaa Al -Basha, reviewed their experiences with artificial intelligence applications, as they used performance analysis programs such as “Edmodo”, which helped them follow the performance of students, and determine their weaknesses and strengths, so they can provide lessons that suit the needs of each student, What reflected positively on their academic achievement.
Mathematics teachers, Dr. Amr Zayed, Khaled Ali and Ibrahim Al -Qabbani, pointed to the benefit of the tools of artificial intelligence, such as “classcraft” in the management of the classes, and said: “It facilitates and organizes the semester management, so that education becomes more interactive, and students are more enthusiastic to participate.”
They reviewed artificial intelligence applications influencing teachers, including student performance analysis systems, such as “Edmodo” and “PowerSchool”, classroom management applications, which help organize classes and activities management, educational content preparation programs, which facilitate teachers to prepare attractive educational materials Visually, as well as simultaneous translation tools and “microsoft” applications in translation.
The relatives of students, Mona Al -Kaabi, Salem Abdullah, Soumien Hassanein, Sultan Ali, said that artificial intelligence has made a big difference in teaching children, especially students from the owners of determination, as applications such as «Milo Robotics» supports the paths of upgrading their social skills, and develops the language of communication they have . They said: «Adaptive learning through applications such as (Dreambox) changed the way students interact in all stages of education with the academic subjects.
