Abstract

Artificial intelligence (AI) holds great promise for improving classroom orchestration—the teacher’s management of a classroom workflow that mixes small group, individual, and whole class activities. Although we have developed an orchestration system, named FACT, that uses AI, we were concerned that usability issues might decrease its effectiveness. We conducted an analysis of classroom video recordings that classified and compared the time FACT students spent to the time spent by students using paper versions of the same lessons. FACT wasted half the time that paper did. However FACT students spent slightly more time off task and had difficulties referring to objects on shared documents.
