The magic of AI Tutor -MYP 4 Physics- Sheeba Abraham

Objective of the Learning Engagement

To reinforce key Physics concepts and improve conceptual clarity by using the Toddle AI Tutor for targeted revision, personalized questioning, and instant feedback, enabling students to identify misconceptions and strengthen their understanding in preparation for assessments. 

Learning Engagement:

The AI tutor feature on Toddle was introduced to me by Dr. Meetu Agarwal. As the time for revision approached, I decided to utilize this tool to kickstart the revision process. Upon logging into the Create AI Tutor feature, several options were available. I chose the Mastery Builder, where I input the syllabus for the upcoming Physics assessment.

The AI then generated a set of instructions along with an AI rating scale, allowing students to be placed at different levels: Beginning, Emerging, Developing, and Mastery. Once the students were assigned their respective levels, the AI guided them with progressively more challenging questions. Upon submitting their work, the AI evaluated their performance, provided a level-based assessment, and offered feedback on their strengths and areas for improvement for that topic.

My experience with the new AI tool on Toddle has been excellent. It helps us understand our strengths and weaknesses and shows how we can improve. It's a great way to revise all the topics in one place, along with valuable feedback. The questions are also based on the topics we have covered, and the AI provides us with excellent questions to practice.

The feedback I received is quite detailed and informative. It effectively highlights my strengths in various areas, encouraging me to recognize where I excel, such as my understanding of Newton's laws and my ability to apply formulas correctly. Additionally, it identifies specific areas for improvement, which are important for my growth. The suggestions for next steps give me a concrete plan to enhance my understanding and skills further. Overall, the feedback offers a balanced view of my performance and valuable guidance for future development.

This is a fantastic new approach to learning with these tools.

Student Reflection-By Darsh Chaudhary
I'd say that my experience with the new AI tool on Toddle has been absolutely amazing. The new tool has helped me deepen my understanding quite a lot. It has helped me revise the concepts on various topics and has helped me strengthen my overall understanding of various topics. The AI tool also provides me with feedback and provides me with detailed context on each topic as well as a follow-up question.

All in all, I'd say that the AI is absolutely fabulous. It is a tool I certainly plan on using much more due to its complexity in terms of the feedback and its amazing responses and questions.

My reflection as an Educator-
I was truly amazed by how fully engaged the entire class was while responding to the questions generated by the AI. Students were actively learning as they answered, thanks to the real-time, instant feedback provided by the AI. What really hooked them was the way the AI gradually increased the level of difficulty—moving seamlessly from simple to more complex questions—which kept them motivated and challenged.

But what made this AI tool truly powerful was its ability to provide personalized feedback—clearly outlining each student’s strengths and areas for improvement based on their responses. The impact was so profound that students didn’t even realize the bell had rung and the lesson had ended. To my surprise, they were so impressed that they shared their experience with teachers of other subjects—and two of them even approached me, curious to learn more about this AI feature the students had been raving about.

One moment that stood out was seeing a student confidently solving numerical problems, including SUVAT equations and even analyzing graphs. It felt surreal—there was pin-drop silence in the room, with every student deeply focused. A thought crossed my mind: "Will I be replaced? Is the teacher even needed anymore?"

Beyond Black and White: Teaching Moral Complexity Through All My Sons- MYP 4 English LAL- Vivek Mukherjee

Objective of the Learning Engagement:  To study the motivations behind decision making Details of the Learning Engagement: Today in my Grade 9 English class, we explored the idea of decision-making and what drives people to make the choices they do. Our focus was Joe Keller’s fateful decision to ship faulty airplane parts in Arthur Miller’s timeless play All My Sons. Students reflected on what lay behind Keller’s choice: was it mainly socio-economic pressure, or was it a result of his deeply flawed character? This sparked a lively debate in class, with many different perspectives coming to the surface. To wrap up, the students created posters that tried to justify Keller’s decision-making process from different angles.   Impact of the engagement on students and reflection as a teacher: It was inspiring to see such young learners engaging passionately with themes like war profiteering, morality, and survival under extraordinary circumstances. That’s the real magic of literature...

Bringing Stories to Life: When Reading Meets Sketching and Discussion MYP1- Mayura Tiwari

Objective of the Learning Engagement:  Response to literature Details of the Learning Engagement: This is an ongoing activity - the children take turns reading aloud. They are encouraged to respond through sketching in their notebooks what they visualise. Most of them do. In turns, those who are keen - they all are! - , come up to the board and sketch. Four children - a total of eight in two shifts - take their place at the board and sketch as the others read. I get the children to pause and we discuss important parts, making connections to real life, analysing the characters, etc. The purpose is to develop listening skills, oral skills and visualisation through reading aloud. I do stop them also to correct pronunciation, intonation, etc. I establish right at the beginning that I need to help them enhance oral skills and if it is OK with them will make corrections. I get the buy-in from all of them. Some children prefer to continue to read on their own and are allowed to do that. O...
