The community teachers develop while participating in the Shark AI training is also key as they navigate the new curriculum. For example, Naik mentioned that some Florida schools use Microsoft applications while others use Google. This caused a few technical hurdles for some of the Shark AI teachers, but they worked together to troubleshoot and ultimately share their best practices.And to help teachers make clear connections for their students between the science classroom and the STEM workforce, the project offers "role model visits," where a research team member visits science classes to engage directly with the students using Shark AI."Going to a class and saying: 'I am a real scientist, and if you want, you can be too. You are classifying fossils using machine learning tools, and that is exactly what I do as a scientist.' That is very powerful for teachers, not only for the content support, but also for the science identity that the students might come away with," MacFadden said., The lessons aim to demystify AI by teaching students about data collection and object classification using fossil shark teeth, showing students how to train and evaluate machine learning models while recognizing a model's limitations, and supporting students as they create unique AI models., Artificial intelligence can be a real time saver for science teachers, and a true source of engagement for students. Here’s how. How can you create new science lesson plans, adjust assessments, and design labs using only objects kids have at home? Just ask—ChatGPT, that is..
