Human Education for a Machine-Driven World

Methods for teaching with, through and alongside artificial intelligence

Addressing the Sea Change

At Sai On Consulting Services, we enable educators to respond to the sea change that is transforming education, pushing the conversation beyond AI as easy-way-out, AI as threat. We help educators and schools incorporate AI as a dynamic tool for reflection, critical inquiry, dialogue, and construction: AI as collaborator.

With. Through. Alongside.

We believe that artificial intelligence can expand teachers’ and learners’ capabilities, and transform the entire learning space by working with, through and alongside AI:

AI as partner with which we can think, guide, co-facilitate and organize.
AI as medium through which we can extend, accelerate and broaden our thinking.
AI as a phenomenon alongside which we can reflect objectively, critically and open new perspectives.

Academic Integrity

Ensuring productive difficulty and avoiding off-loading of thinking and effort with artificial intelligence; maintaining ethical boundaries and guardrails.

Oral Literacy ("Oracy")

Shifting emphasis from formative writing to formative listening and speaking aided by writing.
Multimodality

Learning through multiple, overlapping modes such as writing to read and speak; gaming to write and read; listening and viewing to speak and write, etc.
Assessment

Demonstrating mastery in multiple modes while enhancing objectivity and reflectivity in feedback.
