THE PENPOL TIMES

AI in the Classroom

, , ,

As Class 7 continues to learn about Cornish Mining,  this week we added a special twist! We used “School AI” to help us explore this fascinating topic in a way that was just right for each child.

 

With AI, we could ask our own questions and get tailored answers to help us understand what life was like for miners. Some chidlren wanted to discover what kinds of food miners ate, while others wanted to find out about their family life. Some even explored how mining helped the economy and why it was so important for Cornwall. It was amazing to see how AI could guide us to learn in a way that suited us best!

 

We also had an important discussion about using ai safely. We learned that AI is a great tool for learning, but we should always check information, think critically, and ask a teacher if we’re unsure.
