How to use AI in education
Sisodia said that education always starts with the knowledge given by the mother to children. When education started being given in schools in our country, it was told how we should use our hand. When the machine came to use the hand, then it was told how the brain should be used. For this, when the computer arrived, then it was told how the intellect should be used. AI has now arrived for this. He said that in such a situation, now the question arises as to what to do in education and why it should be done.
How will India’s future be ready with these shortcomings
He said that at present there are 30 crore students studying in schools in our country and 2 crore teachers studying them. The future of education has become a challenge to all of them. Out of the schools present in the country, 48% are schools that do not have electricity. Out of the remaining 52% of the remaining 52% schools do not have computers and 42% schools do not have internet. There is no internet in the school where there is electricity. Still, in 42% of schools, children sit on the floor and study. India’s India is getting ready in these schools.
AI based course in South Korea
Sisodia said that South Korea has designed the entire course of its school in 2025, based on AI. There are many countries including Finland China that have changed their curriculum. At one time, 99% of people in our country were not given education for different reasons. Now that education is being imparted, children are being taught typing by taking them to computer lab in the name of computer education in 12th standard.
Children’s mindset will have to be changed
He said that we give knowledge to children but do not give their mind set. This is the reason that when the child passes 12th standard, then he shows his marksheet and asks for a government job. Recently, it has been informed by the government in Parliament that in the last 10 years, 23 crore people have applied for a government job, out of which only 7 lakh people have been able to get jobs. We have arranged desk, water and toilet for children to sit up to every school in 5 years and in Punjab in 3 years in Punjab. Now it should be focused on how a human will live with another human. Such a change in education will come only when the people of the country will vote on the basis of education.
There was a big change in education
SGSITS Professor Surendra Gupta said that AI is now doing the work of giving a solution to every problem. It is updating from learning, so the teacher will have to change its traditional way of teaching. Chancellor Swapnil Kothari of the University of Renaissance said that we are working to draw conclusions on the basis of low information and low perception. Now competition will increase in the coming time. Both education and knowledge will start giving, we have to develop our children mentally. His heart has to be developed only then he will be able to move forward.
Training should also be given to teachers
Doctor Ankur Saxena of SEZ University said that character building teamwork and creative thinking is the objective of education. We cannot fight artificial intelligence, so we have to incorporate it in our education. Dr. Vandan Tiwari said that if we use Artificial Intelligence properly, it is beneficial, we have to think about what and how the small child is using it.
We should include it in education and teachers should also be trained. Professor Jayati Sharma of Ametti University said that when our experiences are limited, what will we give to children and how. Condolences cannot be expected from technology. Dr. Urjita said that we have to learn children how this new technology is beneficial for them. Along with this, the disadvantage of this technique will also have to be explained. Edited by: Sudhir Sharma
