The University of Florida is enhancing teacher preparation for the next generation by piloting a new AI Assistant feature on GoReact, a video platform that provides skills-based learning for educators. Early-career teachers at the College of Education can now receive instant feedback based on key instructional markers, providing an opportunity for more frequent coaching and allowing instructors to focus on personalized support for each student.<\/p>\n

The college has used GoReact for years, allowing teacher candidates to record and review their teaching sessions, receive timely feedback from mentors, and engage in meaningful self-reflection. By simplifying the observation process, GoReact enables mentors to provide detailed insights that strengthen essential skills and boost candidates\u2019 confidence in their teaching abilities. The new AI Assistant adds an additional layer of benefits to the university\u2019s robust teacher preparation programs.<\/p>\n

As the director of clinical experiences and partnerships for the college, Lori Dassa, Ph.D.<\/a>, is focused on how the AI Assistant broadens and hastens feedback for students.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe AI Assistant in GoReact provides a new layer of feedback for our students and supervisors,\u201d Dassa said. \u201cIt supports varied, insightful feedback that complements the supervisor\u2019s guidance, helping our students grow in their instructional practices with a wider perspective.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

The use of GoReact\u2019s AI Assistant<\/a> aligns with UF\u2019s broader mission to become a leading AI University and leverage AI responsibly across educational, research, and outreach initiatives. The university, supported by one of the most powerful supercomputers in higher education, HiPerGator, has set ambitious goals to integrate AI into all facets of campus life, creating a more technologically proficient and responsible future for its students.<\/p>\n

\u201cThis tool has been transformative, allowing us to see AI\u2019s feedback on teaching goals and explore its ability to save time and focus on specific competencies during the observation cycle,\u201d said Rochelle Robinson Warm, Ed.D.<\/a>, senior lecturer and SITE program coordinator at UF. \u201cThe thorough feedback has proven invaluable, picking up on subtle changes in teaching methods that keep students engaged.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Hyrum Denney, GoReact\u2019s vice president of product shared his excitement about the collaboration. \u201cWe\u2019re thrilled to partner with the University of Florida to introduce cutting-edge AI solutions into their teacher education programs where GoReact is already deeply integrated. At GoReact, we\u2019re passionate about how AI can responsibly deliver immediate, targeted feedback that drives rapid skill development, allowing instructors to save time and focus on providing more personalized guidance. This partnership with UF underscores our commitment to efficient and effective skill-building for tomorrow\u2019s teachers.\u201d<\/p>\n

This partnership between GoReact and the UF College of Education underscores a shared commitment to advancing learning through innovation. This collaboration supports UF\u2019s dedication to preparing students for an AI-driven future while reinforcing GoReact as a leader in delivering impactful innovative solutions that simplify and enhance skill development for educators and students alike.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
