Technology is already invading the classroom, says Joy Harris, director of educational technology at the University of Tampa. She expects to soon see more “ed tech” that integrates more complex human gestures in user interfaces, as well as augmented and virtual realities. However, the distinction between tech that enhances human teachers and that which replaces them is a gray area. “We’re already seeing large-scale increases” in the use of artificial intelligence in the classroom, says Harris, even if that just means asking Siri the answer to a question. Further still, “AI has already been proven effective for teaching rudimentary skills such as colors and numbers, as well as additional languages,” Harris says, adding, “We’ll see that continue to grow rapidly.”
