Alpha School and the Future of AI in Education: Surveillance, Metrics, and What Teachers Must Demand

Описание: Teacher and parent Kane discusses where a psychology professor argued for integrating AI into assessment rather than banning it. He then reviews Alpha School’s AI-driven model (two hours adaptive academics, afternoons for life-skills projects) and its high tuition. Using a 404 Media investigation and other reporting, he raises concerns about lesson generation quality control, extensive student monitoring/data collection, possible intellectual property issues, and reports of stress from metric-driven systems. He ends with a checklist for evaluating any AI platform: independent evidence, data handling, surveillance assumptions, content licensing, adult support, and equity.
