Are teachers using AI? 83% say its a time-saver
🤖🕒 Most meetings we are having with schools at the moment feature conversations and questions around the use of AI by staff in organisations. It's clear the landscape is rapidly evolving and education may not be moving as fast, however, it does help to be prepared.
Twinkl, the highly popular educational publisher, recently published the results of its survey of teachers using AI.
The survey highlights:
📈 60% of teachers using AI for work purposes
📈 Frequent users (66%) think AI will make a positive contribution to children’s education
📈 76% yet to receive any training or substantial guidance from their school
📈 58% of educators agree with the Government’s vision of AI improving education
Most educators are making use of the technology either weekly (44%) or daily (23%). These frequent users are saving significant amounts of time each week - with 24% claiming to save up to an hour, 64% between 1-5 hours, and 9% over 5 hours.
