Artificial intelligence is getting a little smarter every day. The digital format for mastering curriculum continues its expansion at all levels of education. Bots are designed to make our lives easier, more informative, and more interesting, and the possibility of machine learning makes them a promising technology in the field of education. The knowledge base of chatbots will only grow, and the bots themselves will be able to learn along with students.<\/span><\/p>\n

With an abundance of existing online services in the e-learning segment, <\/span>chatbots for higher education<\/span><\/a> can accompany each student individually, in accordance with his level and the chosen pace of mastering the material, making learning accessible to almost anyone with access to Wi-Fi. Compared to traditional learning, chatbots do not require significant resource costs, and can potentially help millions of students worldwide.<\/span><\/p>\n

Robots won’t be able to replace humans in the classroom anytime soon, but they can already take on some of their workloads. Subject tests and essays take a significant amount of time for the teacher to check, and at the same time, tasks in them are often repeated. This is especially evident in massive open online courses, where the bill goes to hundreds and thousands of students, which makes individual feedback almost inaccessible. Chatbots may be the perfect solution to this problem, and there is already research and experimentation going on in this area.<\/span><\/p>\n

The prospects for using chatbots at all levels of education are almost limitless. Interaction with instant messengers already dominates social networking among modern students, and it is only a matter of time before they learn under the guidance of WhatsApp bots or receive detailed feedback on completed coursework via Telegram.<\/span><\/p>\n

Some universities are already experimenting with <\/span>Chatbot for education<\/span><\/a> in their virtual lecture rooms. So the Georgia Institute of Technology successfully implemented a chatbot named Jill Watson as a teacher. Jill, named after the famous IBM Watson, helped more than 300 Ph.D. students in artificial intelligence during the system’s testing period, without them being able to recognize that they were interacting with a digital learning assistant. After a successful debut, Jill Watson now helps students on various campuses around the world.<\/span><\/p>\n
