KUALA LUMPUR, Jan 24 (Bernama) -- PowerSchool, the provider of cloud-based software for K-12 education in North America, announced the next evolution of its artificial intelligence (AI) platform with the launch of PowerSchool PowerBuddy, an AI-powered assistant for everyone in education.
“In addition to supporting parents, teachers, and educators, PowerBuddy helps each child cultivate a genuine passion for learning, driven by the intentional design of safe, supportive, inspiring, and tailored experiences using AI,” said its Chief Product and Innovation Officer, Shivani Stumpf.
In a statement, PowerSchool said its AI ecosystem founded on Responsible AI principles uniquely benefits all stakeholders crucial to a student’s educational journey.
With their own PowerBuddy, each student, parent, educator, counsellor, and administrator will now have safe and secure access to individualised guidance, information, and resources at their fingertips, helping students receive the most optimal social, emotional, as well as academic support in a way never experienced before.
Unlike other one-off AI offerings, PowerSchool’s comprehensive AI ecosystem is purposefully engineered to “bring AI to data”, in which this distinctive approach upholds rigorous standards of privacy, ethics, and security establishing a modern method for responsible and innovative AI implementation in education.
PowerBuddy is a role-specific Conversational AI assistant being piloted now and will be available for the 2024-2025 school year to support student progress in and out of the classroom.
It will initially be incorporated into Schoology Learning offering students on-demand, one-on-one assistance with their assignments and tailored pathways transforming traditional learning into an immersive and engaging experience.
Teachers will be able to use PowerBuddy to generate lesson plans, automate the creation of quizzes and assessments in Performance Matters, and personalise homework at scale, saving them time to focus on what is most important – interaction with students.
In addition, parents can leverage PowerBuddy in My PowerSchool to inquire about their child's academic performance and other relevant information, such as receiving proactive alerts if their child is falling behind, fostering transparency and empowering parents to participate in their child’s education.
