International Children’s Digital Library
I want to one day be able to become a kindergarten teacher. I think this would be an amazing resource for any age kids no matter what age or what school they are going to. Not all kids have the same opportunities to be able to buy books or there are times where schools don’t have enough funding for books in the classrooms.
Directly from the ICDL website their mission statement is; “to support the world’s children in becoming effective members of the global community – who exhibit tolerance and respect for diverse cultures, languages and ideas — by making the best in children’s literature available online free of charge. The Foundation pursues its vision by building a digital library of outstanding children’s books from around the world and supporting communities of children and adults in exploring and using this literature through innovative technology designed in close partnership with children for children.”
This is a nonprofit organization and it’s a great idea. Every kid should be able to have access to any book they need. There are children around the world that desire to have books in their reach to learn more in school or even learn at home. I’m currently working as an aid for a kindergarten class and I can see that there are kids who want to learn more and they want to use the books to their full advantage. They are just learning simple words but with just looking at the pictures you are able to tell that they have that drive to learn.
When one day I become a teacher, I want to use this tool to the max. Since today, we are becoming a digital time where each kid now knows how to use a tablet or a phone. If schools become more digital, this would be the perfect tool for kids to use in the classroom and at home. I would incorporate this as much as possible since it would be such a good tool to use in class to teach the kids different pictures or as they start learning words they can use them even more.

AI Based Learning Environment
AI or artificial intelligence is a part of computer science. It stimulates and its ultimate goal is to recreate human intelligence in a machine. Technology is now making new ways to educate and it is finding new ways for online education to be at the highest point it can be.
AI Based Learning Platforms
- More of a personalized learning experience since no two people require the same exact way of processing information
- A more reinforced way of learning
- An easier way of searching and finding anything necessary.
- AI Coaches; more of a personal coach which can search for your specific needs and accommodate to them
- Higher completion rates
- There is a higher universality rate since an AI can accommodate many information and learn meaningful insights.
This video is just an example of what artificial intelligence can do. Since it can adapt and learn constantly every single day it can learn to adapt to a person who is using is whether it be in school or a job.
Myths Involving AI
There are many myths involving AI even when there are over 50% of companies who have already incorporated them into their business. A common myth is that AI requires a huge amount of technical knowledge and it’s very complex. This is not the case at all since AI requires little to no interaction when it is performing tasks. After the process is programmed there really isn’t much to it that the person needs to do. Another myth is that AI is costly and way too expensive. There is a type of AI for everything and there are certain AI that are made in order to fit the needs of the person or company using it.
Artificial intelligence can transform and open new paths in education. AI can be set to learn new ways in learning platforms. It can completely transform the learning experience, from providing a digital coach or measuring effectiveness, the possibilities are endless.
