With over 60% of educators already using AI tools actively, the report reveals AI’s tangible impact on transforming teaching processes and resource creation. However, key concerns remain around risks like diminishing creativity and overreliance on technology.
“This report underscores the fact that AI is no more just an emerging technology but a reality that is already reshaping classrooms across India,” said Shantanu Rooj, Founder and CEO. “The perspectives of over 6000+ educators provide invaluable direction on how to harness AI responsibly so that students are equipped with future-ready skills”.
