3662.Resource, Edutopia, Using Artificial Intelligence to Help Students Prepare for the SAT (Nov. 2023)

This was copied directly from the website:  "Creating college entrance exam prep materials can take a lot of time, but artificial intelligence tools make the process easier. Preparing students for the SAT can be a daunting task, to say the least. While providing opportunities to practice test-taking skills can show strong results, the process of selecting texts, writing SAT-aligned questions, and grading can take up hours of work time. Additionally, using class time to focus on test preparation often feels like it’s taking instructional time away from the scope and sequence of a course.Together, these challenges lead many teachers to opt out of preparing students for a test that still has a significant impact on a student’s available pathways to success after high school. However, thanks to AI tools, all teachers can be empowered to equip students with the skills needed for success on college entrance exams without the stress. In our digital age, the integration of artificial intelligence (AI) tools into the classroom has the potential to greatly enhance SAT preparation for both teachers and students. With platforms like MagicSchool.ai and ChatGP, educators can provide a multitude of materials for their students. These tools, when combined with others like the Form Builder extension for Google Docs, allow teachers to quickly generate SAT-style reading questions from any given text, thereby facilitating the assessment of students’ comprehension skills. This not only saves time and provides quick and useful data but also ensures that the texts used are relevant to the curriculum and students’ current reality. "
