There\u2019s always assessment, always learning, and they\u2019re tied together. Then we can ask: what is the role of the human in that world? What is it that AI can\u2019t do?<br \/>\n&#8230;<br \/>\nImagine something like that in higher ed. There could be tutoring or skill-based work happening outside of class, and then relationship-based work happening inside of class, whether online, in person, or some hybrid mix.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 40px;\">The aspects of learning that don\u2019t require relational context could be handled by AI, while the human parts remain intact. For example, I teach strategy and strategic management. I teach people how to talk with one another about the operation and function of a business. I can help students learn to be open to new ideas, recognize when someone pushes back out of fear of losing power, or draw from my own experience in leading a business and making future-oriented decisions.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 40px;\">But the technical parts such as the frameworks like SWOT analysis, the mechanics of comparing alternative viewpoints in a boardroom\u2014those could be managed through simulations or reports that receive immediate feedback from AI. The relational aspects, the human mentoring, would still happen with me as their instructor.<\/p>\n<p><em><span style=\"color: #800000;\">Part 2 of their interview is here:<\/span><\/em><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/aiedusimplified.substack.com\/p\/theyre-not-necessarily-trying-to\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><strong>&#8220;They\u2019re not necessarily trying to cheat; they\u2019re just being efficient&#8221;<\/strong><\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<hr \/>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Embedded post\" src=\"https:\/\/www.linkedin.com\/embed\/feed\/update\/urn:li:ugcPost:7394036339324923905\" width=\"504\" height=\"1064\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>?
