Teacher Education
A short video clip explaining how the AI Assistant in GoReact provides automated feedback while keeping human oversight at the center of teacher development
Hear Allison Smith, of UMass Global, explain how AI feedback in GoReact works, and why it’s not just about automation. Watch the full webinar.
Dr. Allison Smith:
So the nuts and bolts, if you haven’t really used it, I just wanted to go through this. Candidate records themselves teaching. They upload it to GoReact, GoReact AI function, then creates a transcript of the video, then it analyzes and it automatically provides the feedback. But here’s where to answer your question. The supervisor can approve, edit, add to decline the AI feedback.
They could say, this is junk. Or if, let’s say it is junk, right? Have the candidate write why this AI feedback does not apply in the situation. That’s the critical thinking. Maybe AI doesn’t know the personal context of the community within the school, outside of the school. Having to justify why that AI feedback doesn’t apply is really getting them to think deeper. But as a supervisor, you could certainly say, Nope, nope, nope. I have seen people use the AI function and do zero 20 minutes of teaching 90 comments. Imagine you’re the teacher candidate. It’s overwhelming. AI function, in my opinion, is not something to just use on its own. You’re not just pushing a button and saying, go for it. You’re keeping it humanized.
