AI Bytes Episode 6 – Another old favourite gets an AI boost!

Socrative is a well known platform that has been a staple for a while – it now has AI integration to create resources.

Socrative has been around for a fair while – I remember playing around with early versions of it as we were looking at increasingly integrating EdTech as we introduced Google Classroom across our school.

The platform, in the free version, is fairly straightforward. It has all of the usual features; you can add students, assign classes, create homework etc. The addition of AI in the quiz generator is good – it doesn’t do a bad job and you can always pull them in from other sources by formatting them in a spreadsheet.

The platform offers 3 ways of framing the quizzes – a straight quiz, either live or asynchronous; a space race, where students can be put together or work in teams in a competitive race; finally an exit ticket to gather quick responses.

There is nothing revolutionary here, but the platform is smooth, does what it does well and has been tried, tested and used by educators for years now.

This is another good example of AI enhancing and automating something – evolution, not revolution!

So what other EdTech favourites have you found that have ad a sprinkle of AI 

I hope this helps someone somewhere – as ever, happy  AI enhanced teaching!
