A new approach to personalized computer-based learning will help mitigate the impact of understaffed teachers, understaffed classrooms and poor self-learning, problems that have worsened since the pandemic.
The EdYOU solution is built around an AI-powered learning tool that uses a visual approach to enhance the learning experience for students and adults who cross careers.
According to data from Education Week, the National Center for Education Statistics and the U.S. The Bureau of Labor Statistics estimates that approximately 270,000 teachers and staff across the country leave or leave each year. The epidemic worsened the teacher shortage. In recent years, 41 states and the District of Columbia have had problems in at least one program category or level. Most states have fewer positions and fewer qualified teachers in classrooms than in previous years. Last year more than 55,000 teaching positions across the country for grades K-12 ended. The U.S. Department of Education identifies three types of teacher shortages: unfilled positions, positions filled by unqualified teachers, and positions filled by teachers in a subject other than their own. AI Meta-Human Learning.
Enrollment in teacher certification programs is declining. Most states have seen a significant increase in teachers leaving classrooms in the last two decades of the past decade. Worse still, studies have shown that an increasing percentage of the remaining teachers (12%) are not satisfied with their work. More than four in 10 teachers said they would leave the profession within two years.
To help with the teacher shortage, edYOU founder and CEO Michael Everest began an innovative approach to overcome the challenges posed by traditional teaching methods. By providing teaching and learning tools, edYOU empowers students and teachers, fills gaps due to staff shortages, and ensures that students receive their education.
“I started edYOU with a passion to improve the declining trend in educational outcomes. EdYOU is the first AI company that is not a chatbot, but uses human-like metahumans to learn conversations in real time without using videos, he told TechNews World.
Adaptive AI avatars for educational support
This approach is rooted in adaptation. Everest has developed three avatars available on this platform which are secure AI entities. Each provides personal and ongoing support, promotes communication and provides a unique learning experience, he explained.
EdYOU has APIs that allow easy integration with popular classroom education systems, learning management systems, and enterprise tools. Users of all ages can log into the website and use a web browser or mobile app to choose the type of educational support and programs they need.
When students are learning, they can ask their AI avatar to help them or explain concepts so they can learn at their own pace. For example, Hannah, Nova or Eddie (above) can help by guiding them to choose the correct answers when preparing multiple choice questions.
If the student makes an error, the digital tutor will provide a comprehensive explanation of the error and why. This approach allows for greater understanding and learning from mistakes.
