Abstract
Artificial intelligence (AI), has emerged as a key disruptive innovation that is reshaping distance education at a speed that may be outpacing our human ability to keep pace. At the same time, AI has the potential to close some equity gaps. From there, current discourses surrounding AI in educational systems (AIED) reflect fears in how students have and may continue to use AI to circumvent the learning process and cheat. In this paper, we consider ways instructors can use AI to facilitate more engaging remote learning experiences. We hope to demystify AI-based tools and then explore how these tools may be used to create to tackle student learning issues such as isolation, motivation, technology, and time management issues. Also, we consider tools to reduce academic integrity issues surrounding AI by using both new and traditional teaching methods. Overall, we hope to equip teachers with a better understanding of AI, as a teaching tool, with a better understanding of AI in education (AIED).
