The future of education is here with Ammonite's incorporation of ChatGPT into its platform. Ammonite's platform can now import an organisation's entire scope and generate the required educational content and assessments, saving educators a lot of time and effort.

With the incorporation of ChatGPT, the resources generated are engaging, complete with images, and designed to be delivered on any device. The assessments are comprehensive and fully mapped, ensuring that they accurately meet the Regulator’s requirements.

To assist educators, Ammonite has also developed tools to grade assessments and provide personalised learning experiences for students. This means that educators can focus on more important tasks, such as working with students, while the platform takes care of the repetitive tasks.

It's important to note that while ChatGPT is a valuable tool, it still requires human oversight and evaluation. However, its incorporation into the Ammonite platform is a game changer in delivering education more efficiently and effectively. In summary, Ammonite's incorporation of ChatGPT into its platform is a major step forward in the future of education. With its ability to automatically generate educational content and assessments, and assist educators in providing personalised learning experiences, it has the potential to revolutionise the way educators deliver education.

The benefits and disadvantages of using the highly disruptive ChatGPT (or similar) in education is being widely debated. Some educators are intent on total elimination on this tool in education while others are excited to see how the technology can enhance education and learning outcomes.

Sarah Dillard, the founder of Kaleidoscope, has written a thought-provoking article in The74 titled "Schools Must Embrace the Looming Disruption of ChatGPT" in which she concludes that the choice is to either tighten the screws on the old ideas about education or to aid and prepare students to navigate the bold new world of artificial intelligence.

The staff here at Ammonite fall firmly in the second group. To be honest, though, we fluctuate from extreme excitement to trepidation, but the trepidation only lasts briefly as solutions to any perceived issues are quickly solved - and implemented.

In a previous blog, we outlined some of the features that have been incorporated into our learning and RTO management system.

Overall, we believe that the benefits of ChatGPT in education far outweigh any potential disadvantages, and we are eager to see how it will continue to shape the future of education.
