Technology is rapidly impacting all aspects of our lives. As educators, how does the arrival of Artificial Intelligence (AI) impact how we should be spending our time with our students? With the technology to solve any math problem quickly and accurately at our fingertips, should we spend large amounts of our time in the math classroom preparing students to compete with it to complete the same calculations?
Or is there another way we could go?
Of course, students need to understand how and when to apply the algorithms and formulas of mathematics. Time must be spent building a conceptual understanding of these important concepts, but what happens if we also spend time helping our students investigate and discover just how powerful the tools of mathematics can be in their own lives? What happens to students when they practice utilizing the rapidly advancing technology as a tool to help them solve challenging tasks based on real-world concepts?
Would our students’ engagement increase? Would learning outcomes improve if students discovered the power and flexibility of mathematics for themselves? Spend an incredible hour with Conrad Wolfram, author of The Math(s) Fix, as we unpack what the most valuable way to spend our classroom time might be in the age of AI.
