Since somestudents may find it and put new power into traditional teaching patterns. Aneducational system providing customized teaching centered on studentsrepresents the future trend of AI education.China’s AIeducation has developed rapidly in recent years with the rise of severalthousand relevant companies. Currently, AI teachers are able to help studentsleamn pronunciation, analyze their condition, guide them to learnindependently, and even grade writing assignments. Some foreign AI educationalsystems have been introduced into several domestic schools and have worked wellon trial.However, thepromotion of AI education is still facing several difficulties in practice suchas low technological levels, inadequacy of data and lack of funds.AI educationstill depends largely on human teachers’ work. Most importantly, it conflictswith current educational patterns because the courses developed by foreigncountries are not suitable for Chinese exam-oriented education. Teachers mayalso find it hard to change their original roles in classrooms since easing controlon classes may make them seem irresponsible. These problems need to be handledbefore the mass promotion of Al education.With AIteachers, the original teacher-centered classes will be transformed intostudent-centered ones where teachers only organize the class and provideguidance. Since teachers are supposed to not only equip students with knowledgebut also shape their values and help them develop creative abilities, AIteachers will not replace human teachers but will only pose higher requirementsof teaching. A combination of AI teachers and human ones can create the bestfuture for Al education.。
