Google’s Learn About – Innovation Amid AI Turbulence | Ep. 33
In this NEW episode of ChatEDU (Google’s Learn About – Innovation Amid AI Turbulence), Matt and Liz explore Google’s new generative AI tool and its implications for education, content publishers, and AI-guided self-directed learning.
Getting Started:Matt and Liz reflect on their hiatus and the success of their recent AI in Education micro-credential launch. They also have a fun look at Daisy AI from 02. An AI tool designed to capture the time and attention of phone scammers.
The Big Three:
OpenAI’s A Student’s Guide to Writing with ChatGPT
A comprehensive guide for ethical and productive use of ChatGPT in education.
Key features include automating citation formatting, research roadmaps, Socratic dialogue, and iterative feedback.
Matt and Liz debate its utility and timeliness, two years post-ChatGPT launch.
Leon Furze’s Take on Generative AI and Grading
Furze argues against using AI for high-stakes grading due to inherent biases and variability in outputs.
Discussion of experiments showing racial and cultural biases in AI-assigned grades.
Emphasis on generative AI as a tool for formative feedback rather than summative assessment.
Google’s Learn About (Beneath the Surface)
Launched against the backdrop of some troubling AI outputs from Google’s Gemini model.
A new AI tool focused on enhancing learning with interactive, visually engaging, and research-grounded content.
Features include vocab building, contextual explanations, and integrated resources like YouTube videos and articles.
Matt and Liz explore its potential for PIPs (Personal Interest Projects), capstones, and self-guided learning.
Short Stack Chat Back:Matt and Liz respond to a listener’s question about the ethics of teachers using AI for grading. They emphasize the importance of transparency, minimizing bias, and adhering to data privacy laws when integrating AI into assessment processes.
Announcements:
Matt and Liz are launching a new cohort for their AI in K-12 Education Micro-Credential in January.
Upcoming live appearances at AESA and the release of more exciting episodes this December.
