This chapter tries to delve into the difficulties of using affordable techniques for generating valid synthetic information such as rating homework or understanding if students are correctly following distant lessons.
AI, artificial intelligence, has recently made a big leap, especially in the field of ANI (artificial narrowed intelligence), meaning that now we are starting to have decent tools that can be useful in teaching. After the surge in importance of the distant learning techniques due to the COVID-19 pandemic in 2020, many educators have found themselves lost in dealing with an overwhelming excess of electronic information from their students, either via chat, email, documents, videos, or multimedia material. This chapter tries to delve into the difficulties of using affordable techniques for generating valid synthetic information such as rating homework or understanding if students are correctly following distant lessons. Since this is still an early subject, much more study and tests must be done to understand the full usability of automated AI tools in this (educational) context.
