What do home-school educators think about ChatGPT? |

| | A new survey found that home-school educators are embracing ChatGPT. The survey by Homeschool+ found that 44% of homeschool educators use the OpenAI chatbot, compared to the 34% of traditional classroom educators. Erik Hanson, the president of the Utah Home Education Association, isn't surprised by the findings. “One thing I think home-schooling parents typically have in common is the ability to be comfortable with things that are outside the norm, outside of dogmatic thinking in general,” he said. “They’re typically people who think independently. They don’t need authority to, you know, bless or grant them the permission to move forward with something.” Karyn Tripp, a home educator in Cedar Hills and mother of four kids ages 9 to 17, has incorporated AI into her teaching and views it as a helpful tool in lesson planning. She says it can also tailor instruction to each student. “For math, for instance, or reading, if they answer a question and they get it wrong, it’ll know to kind of scale back or teach more to that topic. If they get it right, it knows that they can advance again. So it’s kind of kind of a cool thing that I didn’t really think about the fact that it was artificial artificial intelligence, but it definitely is,” she said. |
