How Will AI Impact My Child's Education

All Pro Dad Podcast

Whether your child is starting kindergarten this semester or studying in a dorm room somewhere, you’d better believe students everywhere will be seeing and using more AI in the classroom. From science experiments to essay writing, Ted Lowe, Bobby Lewis, and Buck Buchanan break down how students and teachers will use AI in creative and helpful ways.

Despite being used often, AI is still relatively unknown and scary for a lot of people. You may not have even realized that technologies you use every day like voice assistants (Siri or Alexa), navigation apps, and chatbots rely heavily on AI If they aren’t already, students will soon use AI for things like test prep, study guides, and writing prompts. It will tailor their educational experience, give feedback without judgment, and level the playing field. Teachers will use it to save time lesson planning and get immediate feedback from students. To curb cheating, instructors may begin leaning more on oral exams in class.

If all this sounds new and intimidating, consider these three ways dads can embrace AI in the classroom with their kids:

1. Don’t run

2. Participate with your kids

3. Understand the long-term benefit

Bottom line: AI is getting more powerful by the day, but it doesn’t have to scary, and can actually benefit our kids’ education.

Pro Move of the Week: Ask your kids how AI is being used in their school and work on an assignment together.
