Social Studies
What if students could hear about life in ancient civilizations from people who lived during them? This teacher used AI to set up a role play for students to learn about ancient civilizations through realistic and natural conversations with AI personalities who lived back then.
The uploaded source is meant for 9th-12th grade students, so the teacher made sure to specify a 3rd-grade level when setting up the assignment so that the AI would speak at an appropriate language level and not default to the same level as the provided materials.
Because this is an introduction activity, the teacher chose to turn off the AI grading. Students would still get feedback based on the rubric, there just won’t be a grade displayed to strive for.
To make sure typing speed and ability wouldn’t interfere with the students’ use of Flint, the teacher also turned on text-to-speech and speech-to-text abilities.
Rather than just reading about or listening to a lecture about the characteristics of ancient civilizations, students will be able to fully interact with this Flint tutor and ask questions, request clarifications, and explore new concepts. This tutor will also relate the key points to students’ current lives, helping them better understand the differences between ancient civilizations and the modern day.
Through the analytics in Flint, teachers will also get a sense of what topics are toughest for students to understand initially. They can then adapt their teaching plan to emphasize different aspects.
