Session description

Explore the HAIL (Human-AI Learning) Model, emphasizing the harmonization of AI and human elements in education. Delve into its four pillars and discover strategies for a balanced, human-centered, AI-infused learning environment.

Purpose & objective

The proposal outlines my presentation highlighting the transformative potential of the HAIL (Human-AI Learning) Model, a pioneering approach for harmonizing AI and human facets in education. Grounded in extensive research, this session aims to demonstrate how AI can be utilized as a tool, rather than a teacher, ensuring that the human spirit remains at the heart of the teaching and learning process.

The core purpose of this presentation is to immerse educators in the nuances of the HAIL model. By session's end, participants will:

Recognize the importance of fostering human connections in AI-infused classrooms.
Discern how AI can amplify traditional pedagogical methods.
Be adept in the selection and effective utilization of AI tools.
Grasp strategies for constructing a human-centric, AI-supported learning community.
Educational Challenge: Navigating the overlap between human connections and AI in the contemporary classroom.

Technology Intervention: Emphasis on the HAIL model's components: Humanize, Augment, Integrate, and Leverage.

Models Employed: The HAIL model, structured to synergize human-driven pedagogical strategies with AI tools.

Lesson Plans or Activities: Interactive discussions on humanizing AI-driven lessons, workshops on AI tool integration, and hands-on activities emphasizing AI's augmentative potential.

Evidence of Success: Preliminary application of the HAIL model components in select educational settings has shown enhanced student-teacher interactions and improved learning outcomes.
