In a dynamic announcement poised to reshape the conversation about AI in education, International Assembly of Contemporary Teachers (IACT) declared that artificial intelligence is not an existential threat to teachers, but on contrary, a powerful ally.
Nadal T. Fred, COO of IACT, addressed these concerns during a recent press release, reaffirming the irreplaceable value of educators and their vital role in shaping future generations.
“We recognize the immense contributions of teachers and the multifaceted nature of their role. AI, while incredibly advanced, cannot replicate the unique human elements that teachers bring to the classroom. Instead, it should be viewed as a supportive tool that enhances and augments the invaluable work educators do,” said Nadal Fred.
Nadal expressed his enthusiasm and conviction: “Our teachers are the architects of tomorrow. They guide and inspire the next generation. They are not just teaching classes, they build a generation. They shape future of the people, And that is why, they cannot be replaced by a machine, no matter how advanced it is.”
AI as a Collaborative Partner, Not a Replacement
The integration of AI into education has sparked a range of reactions. While some fear that AI might replace teachers, IACT stance is clear: AI is here to complement and support teachers, not to replace them. Unlike machines, teachers bring empathy, creativity, and personalized engagement, qualities that are integral to effective teaching but beyond the reach of any technology. Not to mention that they help shaping the personality of their students beyond classrooms.
Nadal highlighted, “AI is an incredible tool for handling data and streamlining administrative duties, but it can never replace the heart of teaching. The personal connections, the encouragement, and the moral guidance that teachers offer are irreplaceable. AI is here to enhance these aspects, not diminish them.”
The Human Touch: Why Teachers Are Irreplaceable
Teaching extends far beyond the delivery of educational content. Teachers inspire, motivate, and guide students through their academic and personal journeys. They create a nurturing environment where students feel valued and understood. These human elements, empathy, mentorship, and moral guidance are essential to education and cannot be replicated by machines, regardless of how sophisticated they become.
IACT emphasized this point: “it cannot replace the human connection that teachers provide. The emotional and psychological support that educators offer their students is something AI simply cannot duplicate.”
“Our educators are the backbone of our society,” Nadal stated, “They play a pivotal role in molding future leaders, innovators, and citizens. Their work is profound and irreplaceable. AI should be seen as a tool to assist them in their mission, not as a competitor”.
The Exciting Future of AI and Teaching
As educators, adapting to technological advancements is essential. Embracing AI can lead to exciting opportunities for growth and efficiency. AI tools can provide valuable insights, support lesson planning, and manage repetitive tasks, allowing teachers to focus on their core mission: inspiring and educating students.
IACT expressed optimism about this integration: “We are excited about the future where AI and teachers work hand in hand. While our platform is developing resources to support educators in using AI effectively, the key is to view AI as a partner that amplifies their incredible work, not as a replacement.”, Nadal stated.
A Vision for Future
IACT vision is one of collaboration between technology and education. As they believe that AI, when used appropriately, can enhance the teaching experience, allowing educators to dedicate more time to what they do best, mentoring and inspiring students.
IACT declared commitment is to continue supporting teachers in their vital role, providing a strong community and valuable resources to help them thrive in an evolving educational landscape. An example of their unique approach of teaching by incorporating movies, is seen in this video:
