K-12 educators are embracing AI to improve assessments. Are you?

Did you know that nearly three-quarters of K-12 leaders and educators say they already use artificial intelligence (AI) or plan to deploy it soon? A new national survey finds this information, among other data, a surprise for many observers of K-12 education.
So much of the debate around AI in education has focused on concerns about its use. More than a year after generative AI tools became publicly available, most teachers had yet to use AI in the classroom.
However, most K-12 leaders and educators are embracing AI-powered tools in one area, at least: classroom assessments.
This finding prompts two questions:
- Why are educators turning to AI for assessments when they’ve hesitated otherwise?
- Can AI deliver on educators’ expectations?
