Panel discussion moderated by Ray Schroeder, associate vice chancellor for Online Learning, University of Illinois Springfield, and director/senior fellow, UPCEA National Council for Online Education, at the 2019 Learning Impact Leadership Institute in San Diego, California. Featured panelists include: Ari Chanen, vice president, Artificial Intelligence, Strategic Education, Inc.; Eric Cosyn, director of applied research with ALEKS, McGraw-Hill Education; Yakut Gazi, associate dean of learning systems, Georgia Institute of Technology; Tom Gierke, head of west-NA, Google for Education; Alex Kaplan, chief strategist, IBM Education.
The use of Artificial Intelligence in education is expected to explode to over $6 billion in market value by 2025. As AI becomes more mainstream, how will it transform learning and what are the ramifications for "traditional digital" learning tools? Are institutions prepared for this shift? Will AI help instructors gain deeper insights into learner strengths and weaknesses? Will it allow for more intensive learning or be a distraction?
