Personalized AI Tutoring as a Social Activity: Paradox or Possibility?

This session addresses the paradox of AI tutoring, which offers personalized learning yet risks isolating students. I will explore how social learning activities can be designed to harness the power of AI tutoring in both classroom and online settings. The session begins with an interactive overview of current AI tutoring tools, featuring AI Tutor Pro, a freely accessible and user-friendly platform for learning any topic at any level. I will then demonstrate social learning activities that integrate AI tutoring, including games, foreign language learning, peer tutoring, and role-playing. Participants will have the opportunity to engage with these activities and share their insights on leveraging AI tutoring in social learning contexts. By attending this session, educators will discover effective strategies for balancing AI tutoring with social interaction to enhance student engagement and learning outcomes.
