dyslexia - Artificial intelligence meets Specific Learning Disorders
The rise of artificial intelligence represents a revolutionary change, influencing not only the way we work, live and interact, but also radically transforming learning methodologies. This technology, while aggregating data, works alongside the unique thinking skills of dyslexia to spur innovation. If harnessed correctly, AI can become a vital assistant for people with dyslexia, playing a crucial role in the evolution of educational methods.
This aspect will be at the center of the online seminar dyslexia, organized byUniversity of San Marino in collaboration with Anastasis. The seminar will specifically explore how teachers can use artificial intelligence as a powerful tool to promote an inclusive teaching approach, capable of enhancing the unique characteristics of each student.
Furthermore, it will be analyzed how people with Specific Learning Disabilities (DSA) can use AI to acquire greater autonomy and effectiveness in their educational path, highlighting the potential of artificial intelligence in supporting both teaching and personalized learning.
