2 Examples of AI

 I have used AI tools numerous of times for educational purposes, and I have used two examples that were demonstrated in the Microsoft Training. For example, I had to summarize lengthy articles so that I could grasp main ideas of the text. AI was very helpful, and I did not have to waste time reading the whole article to figure out what the main idea was. I have also used AI to create interactive exercises and worksheets for students including fill-in-the blank and multiple-choice questions. Both of these examples saved me a lot of time and were very efficient.
