There’s definite possibility here—even potentially in marking and monitoring lessons. How much to “Automate” learning in general is. To put it crudely, many LMIC primary school education systems are based on rote learning. So one big question (and debate) in education circles is, should we then make that rote learning as effective as possible? Which is what orgs like Gates foundation funded bridge acadamies have tried to do.
Or should we try and transform learning environments and teaching styles, so that classrooms are transfrormed into the kind of interactive and exploratory spaces we have in higher income countries?
I don’t have a strong opinion on this, but lean towards the “improve the rote learning” in places like Uganda where i live, especially if the government isn’t putting in a huge effort to transform education sustem
LLMs even right now could easily play a big role in improving rote learning, but I’m not sure they are at the stage yet to play much of a role in transforming classroom spaces—but that could come in the near future.
