Learners of Angra Pequena Senior Secondary School have welcomed the school's AI tutoring programme, saying it boosted learner performance outcomes.
The learners furthermore find that the AI tutoring programme has also enhanced their critical thinking.
"This lab is a factory of critical thinkers, which I am part of. So, I urge the house to let us not close this lab after the ribbon is cut. Let us take Yyeni to every school in !Nami#Nus, I hope I pronounce it properly, and to every school in Namibia. I started as a scared learner who thought Ai would make me dump, and I started as a scared parent sitting among us that thought YYeni Ai would kill our brains. But, actually, honestly speaking, I stand here today as a learner in this school who knows YYeni AI would make me better."
"I think it is beneficial in the way it is structured because it forces you to answer test or questions papers basically before you actually start the content, which makes it easier for you to grasp the information after you get corrections."
'I got to enhance my critical thinking, which I also don't know I had because I questioned everything.'
A teacher at the school was commended as a contributor to better learner outcomes.
"It is not replacing the teacher; it is giving the teacher another tool to enhance effective teaching and learning, and of course to work smart. And we can still benefit all, and by benefiting all, I mean the learner, me the teacher, and the parent."
