2. Tools that make quizzes from videos Explore Tools that make quizzes from videos As we discussed before, video is no doubt an excellent resource and motivator for our English classes and our students. Of course we need to make sure of the quality of the film/resource itself so we can promote in fact our students language skills and proficiency. The myriade of videos and video resources available nowadays makes its use almost mandatory, so why not make the experience more interactive and active? At this point of our course we will explore tools that make quizzes from video with the help of the tool`s AI features, automatically, (Kwizie) and by hand, using a not so automatic tool that some of you may already know (Edpuzzle) but still very effective, that has already got a Beta AI version.   Kwizie - Kwizie creates quizzes from any video automatically using AI. The free account allows the generation of three quizzes from YouTube or Vimeo videos (if we use and access th...

Artificial intelligence explained in 2 minutes: What exactly is AI? Generative AI explained in 2 minutes URL My Lumen5 video - How Generative AI-enabled Digital Language Labs Revolutionize Learning Lumem 5 Read this article " How AI can save you time: 5 skills you no longer need to learn". Do you agree with this perspective? Do you think AI can really save us time? Do you think there are skills we will no longer need to learn thanks to its existence? article opinion People are scared of an uncertain future where they risk losing their jobs, stability, and value in society as their skills are getting more easily automatable. However, AI will always need human collaboration, and sometimes intervention, to function properly. This is the first sentence that caught my attention in the article, and it makes perfect sense to me. I mostly agree with the article’s idea that AI can save us time, but I think it exaggerates how many skills we can stop learning. AI is very good at speed...

 

 3. Tools that turn text into presentations Explore Tools that turn text into presentations Presentations are one of the biggest resource teachers use in the classroom with their students. If we think for a while, also our students use them, and a lot, to present work in class. Slides go is an excellent tool since it offers an extensive catalog of free Google Slides themes and PowerPoint templates for creative presentations.

It even has an ice breaker activity generator, which is quite interesting and can give us wonderful activity suggestions for topics according to our students age and educational level. We can do...

  O uso de inteligência artificial (IA) nas salas de aula tem causado pânico entre algumas pessoas devido ao potencial de trapaça e novos métodos de ensino. No entanto, acredito que o sistema educacional será capaz de se adaptar à IA de maneiras que melhorarão o aprendizado e a experiência dos instrutores. Antes de me aprofundar no motivo pelo qual acho que esse é o caso, quero compartilhar minhas suposições subjacentes. Primeiro, prevejo que a trapaça da IA continuará a ser indetectável e generalizada. Em segundo lugar, a tecnologia de IA permanecerá onipresente, pois atualmente é gratuita e fornece escrita excepcional e poder analítico para todos. Por fim, embora as aulas de IA sejam excelentes, elas não substituirão totalmente as salas de aula. Alguns leitores podem discordar da minha última suposição, mas eu a mantenho. Tendo experimentado o ensino orientado por IA, posso dizer que ele tem um potencial incrível para instrução adaptativa e útil. No entanto, a tutoria por si só n...
