Before students use AI to think faster, are we giving them enough opportunities to think for themselves? ๐ญ
AI has enormous potential in education. But the skills that make it powerful (curiosity, critical thinking, creativity and communication) need to be developed through experience.
In her latest article, ThingLink's Founder and CEO, Ulla Maaria Koivula Engestrรถm Hull explores why the sequence matters: human skills first, AI as an amplifier.
When students investigate real places, capture their own observations, build interactive experiences and share what they've discovered, they're doing more than developing digital skills.
They're learning to think, organise, question and communicate.
๐ Investigate. Create. Share.
With ThingLink, students can turn their own discoveries into interactive images, virtual tours and immersive learning experiences making their thinking visible and their learning meaningful.
The question isn't whether students should use AI. It's what we want them to be capable of before they do.
