Education and technology have become increasingly integrated in recent years, creating immense opportunities to offer online learning tools tailored to students from diverse backgrounds. intive experts, in collaboration with a prestigious educational publisher, are building a range of AI-powered use cases poised to revolutionize the education landscape.
A few months ago, one of the world's leading educational publishers of books and digital resources approached intive with a major challenge. With products being used by millions of students across thousands of colleges and universities worldwide, the publisher recognized AI's potential but didn't know how to harness the technology effectively for its business.
At an initial stage of Proof of Concept (PoC), intive and the publisher co-created innovative AI features designed to improve educational outcomes and accessibility, transforming the digital experiences of both students and educators.
Defining High-Priority AI Use Cases
intive's first challenge was to understand the publisher's business priorities and identify areas where AI could catalyze transformative changes.
By defining primary use cases, leveraging existing tools, and advising on key third-party tech alliances, intive began developing AI-driven solutions with substantial impact—without requiring the publisher to start from scratch.
Once aligned with the publisher's business objectives, the collaborative focus shifted to kickstarting the development of these solutions.
AI Integration for Digital Book Production
Generative AI has the ability to significantly streamline editorial processes and optimize content creation. intive and its collaborators are embracing this capability by building a system that will allow editors to quickly format book transcripts received from authors, ensuring seamless alignment with the publisher's established standards and consistent formatting across materials.
In addition, with AI support, editors will be able to create assessments in digital books, selecting the desired level of difficulty and adhering to the cognitive skill categories established by Bloom’s Taxonomy principles.
Driving a New Learning Experience
By introducing AI technologies, intive is helping to define a new vision of the educational experience for students and teachers alike.
Our AI-powered solutions will bring substantial benefits to educators, especially when managing large groups of students and assessing comprehension levels. Generative AI will enable teachers to swiftly create multiple-choice quizzes and open-text evaluations as well as automate the grading process. While educators will need to review the accuracy of AI-assisted grading tools, this streamlined approach significantly reduces the time-consuming task of individually evaluating each assignment.
Furthermore, AI algorithms will detect indicators that suggest when a student might withdraw from a course. Tracking student performance will allow timely intervention and proactive measures. For instance, educators will be able to send automatically generated personalized messages to check students' status and attend to their needs.
Additionally, Generative AI's capacity to deliver natural language responses will significantly enrich the learning journey. Once students complete online assessments, a personalized feedback mechanism will deliver constructive insights in a positive and motivational tone, including highlighting the areas that each individual needs to improve.
Moreover, AI-powered tools will offer students intelligent search functionality within books, using semantic search methods to provide more efficient and useful results.
Championing Inclusive Education
Accessibility needs to be at the heart of EdTech initiatives, to create a more inclusive educational landscape for students with diverse levels of tech literacy and aptitude.
intive harnesses its expertise in this domain by integrating accessibility into its AI developments. For instance, when using AI to generate tests to check reading comprehension, the algorithm factors in learning difficulties associated with short-term memory in order to ensure that questions are memorable and easy to answer.
Sales Efforts Empowered with AI-Driven Insights
The intive team is also developing an AI tool that analyzes educational institution websites in aggregate to gather crucial information about courses and instructors.
In the foreseeable future, this functionality will help salespeople identify needs and resource gaps to offer specific products that correspond with each institution's learning offerings.
Reshaping Education for Accessibility, Adaptability, and Efficiency
AI has the potential to transform the Edtech landscape, nourishing students with a more personalized learning environment and empowering educators, editors, and sales teams with increased operational efficiency. Modern education will become more accessible, adaptive, and efficient.
The central objective is clear: Enhance the learning experience for students and empower educators to focus on the most fundamental aspects of teaching, the human skills that even AI can't replace.
