Transformational Power of AI in Education

The Transformational Power of AI in Education as a Personal Growth Partner:How AI Enables the Redefinition of Learning to Expand Student AgencyAI has changed the way we live, work, and learn. It’s far more than just a tool for efficiency — it’s a partner in our personal and professional development. As parents, educators and leaders, our role is to ensure young people don’t miss out on the transformative experience of learning to apply AI in their lives. Yet, the beauty of AI lies in its ability to unleash creativity and expand human Agency, not in our ability to control how students use it. In my work with AI since late 2022, I’ve discovered how cognitive offloading frees up mental space for higher-order thinking. By delegating routine tasks like calendar management and repetitive inquiries to AI, I can focus on what truly matters — creative thinking, strategic planning, and deep work.This idea of cognitive offloading is precisely what I envision for students as they engage with AI. They should not be burdened with tasks that can be automated; instead, AI should allow them to explore their creativity, dive deeper into subjects that interest them, and develop critical thinking skills.
