Hello eTwinners. Each month, we will showcase a project that utilizes AI. This month, the focus will be on AI Masters, highlighting its key aspects and impact. If you have a project you'd like to share, feel free to reach out! 

FULL DESCRIPTION. Pages->eTwinning Projects Highlights 

 

Students facing diverse educational challenges often struggle with writing short texts in English. To address this, artificial intelligence, specifically AI Dungeon, was integrated to generate personalized story scenarios. This approach encouraged creativity, allowed gradual skill development, and made writing more accessible. As a result, students who previously found writing difficult created multi-page stories independently. The project not only enhanced storytelling abilities but also fostered intercultural collaboration and exchange.

AI-Powered Storytelling for Inclusive Education leverages artificial intelligence to support students with special educational needs. By engaging in interactive storytelling, students improve language skills, gain confidence, and develop creativity.

Hello everyone!

Next month, we will be hosting our first online meeting in the series, and we would love to make it an interactive and insightful experience for all participants. To that end, we are looking for volunteers who would like to share their experiences with AI—whether it's a project you've worked on, a tool you've explored, or an interesting application you've come across.

If you're interested in taking the floor and contributing to the discussion, please let me know here or via e-mail siwkowskimichal@gmail.com. Your insights and experiences will surely inspire others!

Hello group. You want to chat with someone and I'm not available? Talk to Mike. My Character.ai Avatar. He should know what I know :)
