Now, artificial intelligence (AI) may have an answer for that, bringing learning and feedback in a very personal way to students. That’s the approach adopted by Derek Haoyang Li, founder and CEO of Squirrel AI, who has assembled a smarter alternative to existing online learning environments such as MOOCs. Li has building an AI-driven online educational platform in partnership with a global network of educators and participating institutions, including the National University of Ireland, Stanford University, UCLA, UC Irvine, Shanghai Jiaotong University, and Remin University of China. The company employs an AI adaptive learning engine with advanced algorithms, providing students one-to-one educational programs. The goal is to take adaptive learning, which is the employment of personalized learning based on individual progress, into the AI era, says Li, a featured speaker at the AI Summit being held in New York on December 5th and 6th. (Forbes is a media partner to the event.) “If you do not use AI for the base model of adaptive learning, you will fail,” he warns.
