OSF Preprints | Pedagogical Biases in AI-Powered Educational Tools: The Case of Lesson Plan Generators
OSF Preprints | Pedagogical Biases in AI-Powered Educational Tools: The Case of Lesson Plan Generators
This paper examines pedagogical biases in AI-powered educational tools, focusing specifically on lesson plan generators. We investigate how these tools may implicitly embed outdated educational approaches that limit student agency and classroom dialogue. Through analysis of 90 lesson plans from commercial lesson plan generators, we found that AI-generated content predominantly promotes teacher-centered classrooms with limited opportunities for student choice, goal-setting, and meaningful dialogue. To mitigate this issue, we further experimented with intentional prompt engineering, which showed promise in significantly enhancing these dimensions in AI-generated lesson plans. We offer practical strategies for educators and developers to mitigate harmful pedagogical biases while promoting contemporary educational values. This work contributes to the critical conversation about how AI tools should be designed and used to support, rather than undermine, the future of education that values student agency and productive classroom dialogue.

The Next Computer? Your Glasses | Shahram Izadi | TED
Picture this: you’re wearing a normal-looking pair of glasses, but they give you the ability to quickly summarize a book, translate between languages or remember where you left your keys. In a live demo of unreleased technology, computer scientist Shahram Izadi unveils Google’s new Android XR platform, which aims to give users the power of AI via smart glasses and headsets. He’s joined onstage by two colleagues, giving a glimpse of the future of “extended reality” (XR) devices — smart, seamless and right before your eyes.

An Algorithm Deemed This Nearly Blind 70-Year-Old Prisoner a “Moderate Risk.” Now He’s No Longer Eligible for Parole.
A Louisiana law cedes much of the power of the parole board to an algorithm that bars thousands of prisoners from a shot at early release. Civil rights attorneys say it could disproportionately harm Black people — and may even be unconstitutional.

Choosing Computer Science in college? Nobel Laureate Geoffrey Hinton has a stark warning for aspiring coders
Choosing Computer Science in college? Nobel Laureate Geoffrey Hinton has a stark warning for aspiring coders
Geoffrey Hinton, the "Godfather of AI," predicts AI tutors will soon surpass human teachers, potentially rendering undergraduate computer science education obsolete. He suggests these AI systems, leveraging vast student data, will offer hyper-personalized lessons. While universities may face challenges, Hinton emphasizes their continued importance in fostering research and critical thinking skills, signaling a radical shift in education.
