AI teacher assistant for children with Special Educational Needs and Disabilities
Context
Teachers with little or no experience working with children with Special Educational Needs and Disability (SEND) may struggle to find the best approach to support them. Additionally, there are not enough professionals, such as therapists and resource teachers, to respond promptly to every case. An AI-powered platform could help share their expertise with other teachers and specialists, ensuring timely and adequate assistance.
Engagement
Highly experienced professionals, eager to share their knowledge, offered their expertise to design and develop a knowledge sharing platform.
The platform is:
Web based – to ensure access to the solution
Simple – to ensure usability
Scalable – to allow for the continuous ingestion of new data
Efficient – allow for the concurrent usage of at least 5 members at the same time
Results
By leveraging the well-established practices of experts and our expertise in AI development, we have created an online form which is filled from professionals and collects use cases. Thus, real-life examples are included in a knowledge base as part of a RAG system. The data collection process was designed to be as easy as possible leveraging voice recording and transcription capabilities.
The form is structured to cover all aspects of communication with children, including the situation that occurred, the professional’s response, and the child’s reaction. Additionally, experts can evaluate the entire scenario, providing valuable insights for the knowledge base.
