Meet EnlightenAI
In October 2023, Sean Galvin was feeling limited in his teaching style. He was a decent teacher, rated as “effective,” but he was having trouble putting in the time and effort needed to become a truly outstanding teacher. Balancing his career and home life was a huge challenge, especially as a father of three young children.
Sean stumbled upon EnlightenAI by chance and realized that the tool could solve his biggest problem: grading and feedback. The integration with Google Classroom was especially important to him.
The emergence of AI assistants
Sean started using EnlightenAI to grade open-ended questions on current events every Friday. Previously, grading and providing feedback on 90+ assignments took at least 3 hours, sometimes with delays of up to several weeks.
After using EnlightenAI, Sean was able to set up the tool in about 10 minutes of learning time, and was able to provide consistent quality grading and feedback on every assignment the same day. It was like having an intelligent and conscientious teaching assistant on hand to help with the assignments.
Improve learning effectiveness
Since the introduction of EnlightenAI, Sean has integrated more digital writing assignments into his curriculum. Students have begun to put more effort into their assignments as they receive quick and in-depth feedback. High-performing students have developed deeper understanding and writing skills, while struggling students have been able to grow through specific feedback.
These changes have raised Sean's teacher evaluation rating from "effective" to "highly effective." In addition, he is able to complete school work on time and spend more time with his children.
Looking forward to the future
Sean believes that the various features provided by EnlightenAI can make teaching more sustainable and attractive. He plans to further enhance the learning experience for students by utilizing new tools such as the “instant feedback” feature in the future.
For Sean, AI is now more than just a tool; it’s a solid team of teaching assistants who help him with grading, planning, accountability, and more. This allows him to have deeper interactions with his students, live a more balanced life, and become a truly effective educator both in and out of the classroom.
Sean’s experience is a great example of how AI can bring about revolutionary changes in the field of education. His story is an inspiration to many teachers and provides a positive outlook on the educational use of AI technology.
