Reflections on Accelerate EdTech Impact Summit 2024

Some reflections on use of AI in education after attending the Accelerate EdTech Impact Summit 2024. Dream Day, one of the tools in the student pitch competition, was developing a tool to coach students in their interests, skills and goals. It does this by using activities and questions designed to help students self-reflect. I wonder if this could be a way to help give students the same kind of support and coaching I’ve seen in observing great afterschool robotics teams. Could it act as a coach in a similar way by prompting reflection, and could it start to learn the student’s motivation and interests over time?
