TeachingHOW2s Debuts AI Assistant to Boost Personalized Support for Educators

TeachingHOW2s has today released its AI Assistant, an innovative addition to its whole-organization faculty development platform, fully integrated with each of its 160 visual guides to teaching techniques.

This integration marks a significant enhancement, building on the app’s ability to provide busy educators with step-by-step guides that can be quickly learned, adapted, and applied to classroom, lab, or workspace settings. With the introduction of the AI Assistant, teachers are now offered real-time support to further tailor teaching techniques directly to their specific subject areas and lesson topics.

Up until now, teachers have used the app to select appropriate techniques to suit their teaching requirements, adapting them to their subject and topic areas with minimal time investment due to the engaging, step-by-step visual breakdowns provided.

Now, TeachingHOW2s’ AI Assistant offers real-time, intelligent support to tailor these techniques directly to educators’ specific subjects and topic areas. Additionally, teachers can request hints and suggestions from the Assistant on a range of additional teaching and learning points, including EdTech, employability skills, and online teaching.

Now accessible to all TeachingHOW2s users, the AI Assistant represents a significant advancement in tailored, contextualized CPD, providing educators with a dynamic tool for adapting strategies to diverse educational demands. By integrating the platform’s comprehensive resources with the Assistant’s context-aware intelligence, educators are equipped to deliver more targeted and effective student-centered learning experiences.

Early user feedback emphasizes the AI Assistant’s significant enhancements to educational practices. Educators have praised its fast and effective integration into their teaching workflows, which provides customized, step-by-step, precise guidance.

Reflecting on the impact of TeachingHOW2s’ advancement, Tamara Pierce, Group Director of Teaching, Learning, and Assessment at Middlesbrough College, shares her experience with the HOW2 platform’s Assistant. She highlights how the integration of AI within teaching strategies at Middlesbrough College isn’t just about adopting new technology; it’s about enhancing and aligning with their well-established educational frameworks.

Because the HOW2 platform is equipped with a unique range of social learning tools that foster collaborative professional development and break down geographical and subject boundaries, it offers added advantages. Not only does the platform provide AI-assisted, subject-specific support, but it also enables educators to share this enriched learning with their peers. This integration allows for a reciprocal enhancement of teaching practices, leveraging AI-driven insights to enhance the collective knowledge base of the educational community.
