Super Tutor: AI to Support all Learners

by Eric Curtis
(Eric Curtis describes himself as a Tech Integrationist, Writer, Google for Education Certified Trainer and Innovator)
Could AI be used as a Personal Tutor for all students?
He talks about Bloom saying in 1984 that using the Mastery Learning teaching approach can result in a one standard deviation improvement in student achievement and using Personal Tutoring can result in an improvement of two standard deviations.  We didn’t have the resources to use the Personal Tutoring approach. Forty years later, the advent of AI may enable a Personal Tutoring approach!
There is a heap of content in this presentation!!
I have briefly looked at his illustrations of using ChatGPT and Google Bard to:
Assign a reading level to a given piece of text
Re-write that text to a different reading level
Generate a Vocab list to accompany that text
Generate a study-list of questions about the text
Generate a Tic Tok version of Hamlet’s famous To Be Or Not To Be soliloquy
Science -  
explain the concept of Photosynthesis at different levels of complexity
generate a vocab list relating to Photosynthesis
generate a simplified explanation of Quantum Physics
generate an analogy to help illustrate Quantum Physics


He provides a 1 hour webinar video where he explores AI tools, resources, and activities to help support all learners. This includes using generative AI tools such as ChatGPT and Bard to assist with reading, writing, tutoring, and more. He also explores other AI tools such as Diffit, Eduaide, MagicSchoolAI, Brisk, Goblin Tools, and more which can be used to help support students in their learning.

Do you know how to obtain a written transcript of the YouTube video you are showing your class?
Then you can use AI to provide a pre-viewing summary for your students
You could also use AI to provide a Study Guide list of questions for your students to answer while or after viewing the video.

Did you know you can use a simple menu /pop-up to ask Bard to modify its response to make it shorter/longer/simpler/more detailed etc?

Did you know you can use Diffit to generate level specific resources to accompany a particular article?

Did you know MagicSchool has over 50 tools that can help you do different tasks that can help you lesson plan, differentiate, communicate with families, write a teacher joke, an IEP, personalize learning, and more? It will generate rubrics for your assessments

Use the Common Misconception Generator in MagicSchool to generate learning activities focused on common misconceptions in your Topic (I tried Climate Change)

Try the IEP Suggestion Generator in MagicSchool
