Teachers Feel Most Productive When They Use AI for Teaching Strategies

K-12 education demands a lot from teachers, requiring them to get creative, but a heavy workload and pressure to work quickly can stifle that creativity. Teachers feel more productive and effective when their students are learning, and a new U-M study shows that generative AI seems to help some teachers get new ideas about how to advance student learning. In a piece for The Conversation, researchers Samantha Keppler and Clare Snyder discuss their findings and what’s still left to investigate about generative AI and education.
