  Let me tell you about a friend from when I started working in the BPO industry over two decades ago. He was smart, eager to learn, and ready to tackle the job—but there was one big problem: he didn’t know how to use a computer. He struggled with even the basics, like moving a mouse, and needed help every step of the way. When it came time for the final assessment, he just couldn’t keep up and disappeared from the training. It wasn’t his fault; he had studied nursing and never had the chance to learn these essential skills.  Now, imagine if what happened to my friend happens to your child in his or her near future. Fast forward to today, and we’re living through a massive tech revolution. AI isn’t just some future concept; it’s already here, shaping industries and careers left and right.  And that’s why I’m writing this blog: t o highlight why it’s so important to teach high school students how to use AI tools.   We can’t afford to let them fall behind in a world wh...

Education is going through some big changes. Schools are no longer sticking strictly to the old ways of teaching; instead, they’re using artificial intelligence (AI) to make learning more personalized and help teachers in new ways. But with all this new technology comes both excitement and a few questions. So, let’s look at how AI is making waves in classrooms, the good it brings, and some concerns we should keep in mind. Personalized Learning: Teaching Each Student in Their Own Way Think back to your school days. Some subjects were easy, while others felt like a mountain to climb. Now, imagine a classroom where every student has lessons designed just for them. That's what AI can do. For example, platforms like Knewton use AI to check how a student is doing and adjust lessons based on that. If a student understands something well, the platform will offer more challenging tasks. If they struggle, it provides extra help and simpler explanations. Then there’s Cognii , an AI tool that...
