The state’s and potentially the nation’s first humanoid robot teacher, is transforming education at a Thiruvananthapuram, Kerala, school. It is a product of the Atal Tinkering Lab (ATL) initiative, which was started by NITI Aayog in 2021 to improve extracurricular activities in schools. It was developed in partnership with Makerlabs Edutech.
Iris, an initiative of the Kaduvayil Thangal Charitable Trust, was unveiled at KTCT Higher Secondary School last month and is causing a stir because to its interactive teaching techniques and multilingual capabilities. The AI instructor can offer individualized voice help, respond to intricate queries in a variety of subject areas, and even roll around on wheels for greater mobility.
Makerlabs Edutech is proud of Iris, describing it as a revolutionary invention that completely transforms the educational environment. This research suggests that Iris has the ability to personalize learning experiences, accommodate a variety of learning styles, and increase student engagement. It also represents a significant shift in Kerala’s approach to education.
Iris education presents a vision of a future in which artificial intelligence (AI) will play a supportive and revolutionary role in the classroom, even though its full influence is still unknown.
