Insights with NetSupport - ISTE 2024 edition: Enhancing student engagement and inclusivity with AR & VR for students with intellectual disabilities with Phil Hintz

July 15, 2024 • NetSupport

Maggie from NetSupport joins Phil Hintz from Niles Township School District at ISTE to discuss the use of Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Augmented Reality (AR) VR in education.

Phil talks about the challenges of implementing AI in schools, and one concern is that AI might be biased because of the data it’s trained on. To mitigate this, Phil suggests asking vendors questions about their data privacy practices and how they ensure the data is fair and unbiased. Another challenge is figuring out what data privacy agreements need to be in place when using AI tools. Phil talks about the importance of having a data privacy agreement with any vendor and how they got theirs approved.

Phil also talks about his research on the impact of AR and VR for students with intellectual disabilities and learning life and occupation skills.
