“This book is super reader-friendly. Think of it like sitting down for coffee with the author rather than sitting in some stuffy college lecture. Throughout these pages, we will explore how Al is not just about fancy robots taking over the classroom but how we as humans, can team up with tech to make learning more effective than ever before,” the transformative educationist notes in a synopsis of the book.
“This book is packed full of potential and ideas on how Al can jazz up how we learn, but it’s not all rosy; we won’t gloss over the hard stuff. We need to think about privacy, keeping things fair, and ensuring no one gets left behind. At its heart, education is still all about people. It’s about sparking creativity and nurturing empathy.” he adds.
