HOW WE
USE AI
Using AI for Mindful Innovation
We believe in building products that drive sustainable and equitable education for all. Our software helps students advance, regardless of whether they are already excelling or need help reaching grade proficiency. Our focus with AI has been to place extraordinary emphasis on ensuring ethical and unbiased artificial intelligence spans our entire learning ecosystem.
What is a Comprehensive Learning Ecosystem?
It’s a first-of-its-kind platform that considers the whole child. We combine academics with emotional quotient to deliver the skills needed for students to thrive. Now, AI is helping us accomplish this goal even faster, with major advancements for administrators, teachers, and students alike.
The Implications of Time
For teachers:
One of the most important advancements AI has brought to our software is additional Teacher Time Savings. In the eKadence learning ecosystem, a teacher can now create lesson plans, ability or grade-appropriate reading passages, view student trending data, and identify easy wins for students – all in minutes instead of hours or days.
The result is content, and strategies tied to specific district goals and freed up time to reinvest into the classroom and individual student learning outcomes.
For students:
eKadence offers exciting new engagement tools in quizzes, flashcards, career exploration tools, and even job interview prep. For each tool, content is mapped to learning outcomes and instantly created as more relevant to the student’s identified pathway. Students can ask, “Why am I learning this?” or “Why is this relevant to the career I want to pursue?” making all content relatable and highly personalized.
Our AI-powered tutor, Skrappy, will never produce the answer. Instead, Skrappy helps the student use critical thinking and guides learners to the answer. All threads in Skrappy are analyzed to identify trends of topics that may be difficult for multiple students. This provides insight for the teacher to use in her daily classroom instructions.
For administrators:
Using AI, school administrators can now tabulate survey data in an instant. Identify trends, build action plans, and implement change in weeks vs. the months it previously took. This allows for more responsiveness to parent and community feedback and helps to build trust and engagement throughout an entire district.
