Teachers have told the hidden truth about all innovations in education and its effects.
Meanwhile, Deputy Minister of Digital Development in my country announced that schoolchildren’s homework will soon be checked not by a teacher, but automatically - with the help of artificial intelligence (AI). Representatives of the Ministry of Digital Development of the Russian Federation announced the development of a standard solution for all schools in the country.
Earlier, Minister of Education spoke about the possibility of switching to automatic mode for checking homework. Automatic verification, he said, will be carried out on an electronic platform.
Total digitalization of education is coming!!
Is it good or bad?
As a result of the implementation of this strategy, by 2024, there should be “automated checking of homework that can be checked using intelligent algorithms,” and by 2030, 50% of homework should be checked “automatically using AI expert systems.”
Teachers told what they think about the consequences of these changes.
When assessing knowledge, you need to take into account the child’s characteristics, abilities, personal achievements and successes. For example, a computer may regard a non-standard but correct solution to a problem as an error. But this is not a mistake! It turns out that a creative and individual approach to children will be “clogged” with program templates and algorithms for decisions and checks.
If the homework is checked by a robot, it means that the task will be exclusively in a digital (electronic) version. And the problem outlined above will lead to disaster - it’s simply the widespread dullness of the younger generation. Handwriting is extremely important for development of brain, if a hand isn't developed, the brain isn't developed either!
Template approaches, an attempt to reduce teachers to the role of service personnel lead to an outflow of teachers from schools. If ten years ago there were an average of 13 people per teacher in schools, then in 2023 there are more than 20!
I know that parents are against these changes and then try to stop them. But whether they are able to do it...
