      Brave New Words

      How AI Will Revolutionize Education (and Why That's a Good Thing)

      Whether we like it or not, the AI revolution is coming to education. In Brave New Words, Salman Khan, the visionary behind Khan Academy, explores how artificial intelligence and GPT technology will transform learning, offering a roadmap for teachers, parents, and students to navigate this exciting (and sometimes intimidating) new world.An insider in the world of education technology, Khan explains the ins and outs of these cutting-edge tools and how they will forever change the way we learn and teach. Rather than approaching the ChatGPT revolution with white-knuckled fear, Khan wants parents and teachers to embrace AI and adapt to it (while acknowledging its imperfections and limitations), so that every student can complement the work they're already doing in profoundly new and creative ways, to personalize learning, adapt assessments, and support success in the classroom.But Brave New Words is not just about technology - it's about what this technology means for our society, and the practical implications for administrators, guidance counsellors, and hiring managers who can harness the power of AI in education and the workplace. Khan also delves into the ethical and social implications of AI and GPT, offering thoughtful insights into how we can use these tools to build a more accessible education system for students around the world.

      Navigating the challenges of modern life, the concept of inner peace offers a pathway to tranquility amidst chaos. It emphasizes the importance of maintaining calm and harmony within ourselves, regardless of external pressures. Achieving this balance involves setting boundaries, prioritizing self-care, and engaging in fulfilling activities. A deep understanding of personal values and the ability to embrace the present moment are crucial. Ultimately, inner peace is about aligning actions with true selves and finding joy, rather than pursuing constant happiness.

      Das revolutionäre Lernprogramm für einen besseren und humaneren Unterricht.»Bildungsnotstand«, übermäßiger Leistungsdruck, versagen im »Pisa-Test« – die schlechten Nachrichten zum Zukunftsthema Bildung reißen nicht ab. Um Lösungen zu finden, müssten zunächst die richtigen Fragen gestellt werden: ist das Klassenzimmermodell (Frontalunterricht mit allen Schülern in einem Raum) im Internetzeitalter nicht überholt? Wie bringt man das Gelernte mit den Anforderungen der Berufswelt in Einklang? Und wie erfüllt man diese Notwendigkeiten, ohne dass Schule immer unmenschlicher wird? Salman Khan, US-Amerikaner mit Wurzeln in Bangladesh, gründete die Bildungsplattform »Khan Academy«, mit zwei Millionen Schülern heute die meistgenutzte der Welt. Die Webseite arbeitet mit Lehrvideos und interaktiven Prüfungsfragen. Dadurch werden einige eklatante Nachteile der herkömmlichen Schule vermieden: Jeder kann in seinem eigenen Tempo lernen, so lange, bis er den Stoff restlos verstanden hat. »Beziehungsstress« zwischen Schülern und Lehrern entfällt, die Eigenverantwortung wird gestärkt, und die Kosten sinken. Salman Khans weit reichende Vision lautet: »Kostenlose, erstklassige Bildung für jedermann an jedem Ort der Welt.« Sein leidenschaftlicher Appell trifft den Kern: »Es geht nicht nur um Prüfungsergebnisse. Es geht um das Leben der Menschen. Es geht um ausgeschöpfte oder verschwendete Potenziale, um gewährte oder versagte Würde.«
