Abstract

This chapter explores the evolving role of educators in the context of increasing Artificial Intelligence (AI) integration in education. As AI transforms traditional teaching methods, educators will shift from knowledge dispensers to facilitators of personalized learning, higher-order thinking, and social-emotional development. The collaboration between teachers and AI holds significant potential for enhancing learning experiences through personalized instruction, data-driven insights, and improved classroom efficiency. However, this transformation also presents practical, social, and ethical challenges, such as the digital divide, algorithmic biases, and data privacy concerns. To harness the full potential of AI in education, robust professional development programs for teachers, ethical AI design, and equitable access to technology are essential. This chapter outlines the opportunities and challenges of AI integration, emphasizing the critical role of educators in guiding students through an AI-enhanced learning environment.
