    Study Notes

    Defining AI

    • AI refers to the development of intelligent systems that mimic human behavior and decision-making.
    • AI simulates human intelligence through learning, reasoning, and self-correction.

    Fundamentals of AI

    • AI encompasses various stages of intelligence.
    • Narrow AI/Weak AI: Performs specific tasks (e.g., voice recognition, recommendation systems).
    • Artificial General Intelligence/Strong AI: Learns/adapts across various tasks like a human.
    • Superintelligent AI: Outperforms human intelligence in all areas.

    How AI Learns

    • Supervised Learning: Uses labeled data for predictions (e.g., image classification).
    • Unsupervised Learning: Identifies patterns in unlabeled data (e.g., grouping similar books).
    • Reinforcement Learning: Learns through actions and rewards (e.g., game playing).
    • Deep Learning: Uses neural networks for complex tasks on large amounts of unstructured data (e.g., image recognition).
    • Transfer Learning: Reuses a pre-existing trained model for a related task.

    Exploring Generative AI(GenAI)

    • GenAI systems generate new content (text, images, music) based on learned patterns.
    • GenAI uses machine learning, especially deep learning models (neural networks).
    • Autoencoders: Compress and decompress input data.
    • Generative Adversarial Networks (GANs): Two networks (generator and discriminator) compete.
    • Transformers (e.g., GPT): Effective at generating text, trained on web data, process sentences differently.
    • Large Language Models: Understand text input and generate human-like text.

    AI and the Future of Teaching and Learning

    • Human-like computers have capabilities different from early edtech tools.
    • AI-powered systems offer homework assistance/lesson planning.
    • Educational applications can converse with students/teachers, co-pilot classroom activities.
    • "Intelligence Augmentation" recognizes that people benefit from assistive tools.

    Educational Benefits of AI in ELT

    • AI supports speaking, writing, and reading development.
    • Enhances pedagogy and self-regulation in various ways.
    • Notable exclusion that listening skills were not highlighted as a focus area in education.

    AI in Speaking/Reading/Writing Skills

    • AI enhances vocabulary, grammar, and reading comprehension.
    • AI supports reading by assisting with vocabulary.
    • AI aids in writing by helping with grammar and checking for patterns.

    AI in Pedagogy

    • AI facilitates ELT methods, strategies, and techniques.
    • Some approaches use lectures/explanations/approaches for personalized learning.
    • Challenges include technology breakdowns, limited capabilities, fear of the unknown.

    Ethical Considerations

    • Transparency(educators, students, and parents understand AI decision-making processes)
    • Explainability(AI systems provide clear reasoning for their outputs/decisions).

    • Supporting teachers (summative writing assessment/pedagogical resource recommendation).
    • Supporting systems (diagnostic systems/resource allocation).

    Ethical Course of Action

    • Rule Followers: Adhere to strict ethical guidelines.
    • Outcome Seekers: Flexible approach that prioritizes beneficial outcomes.

    Transparency and Explainability

    • Transparency builds trust in AI systems, enabling user questioning and challenge of AI decisions.
    • Explainable AI provides clear reasoning for AI systems' outputs/decisions.

    Diversity, Non-Discrimination, Fairness

    • AI systems must be designed/implemented ensuring fairness/avoiding bias affecting any student group.
    • Regularly evaluating AI systems ensures that they don't perpetuate/introduce bias related to data or application of algorithms themselves.

    Societal, Environmental Wellbeing

    • AI in education promotes bridging social divides and ensuring equitable access.
    • AI systems aim for social impact and social wellbeing.

    Privacy and Data Protection

    • AI systems must comply with data privacy laws and handle student data responsibly.
    • Data should only be used for its intended purpose; students must have control over data usage.

    Technical Robustness and Safety

    • Protecting student data from cyberattacks is crucial.
    • AI systems should be designed with built-in safeguards for data misuse/unauthorized access.

    Accountability

    • Establish clear accountability for AI system development, deployment, and outcomes.
    • AI providers/educators involved should be accountable for their actions.

    Emerging Competencies for Ethical Use of AI

    • Area 1 (Professional Development): Utilize digital technology for communication, collaboration, and professional development.
    • Area 2 (Digital Resources): Sourcing/creating/sharing digital learning resources/Data/AI governance.
    • Area 3 (Teaching & Learning): Employ digital technologies for enhanced learning and assessment.
