From chalkboards to chatbots in Nigeria: 7 lessons to pioneer generative AI for education

In 1984, educational psychologist Benjamin Bloom demonstrated that students receiving one-on-one tutoring vastly outperformed their peers confined to the traditional classroom setting. Despite these proven benefits, the prohibitive cost of providing individualized attention to every student has remained a significant barrier for most families.

From chalkboards to chatbots: Transforming learning in Nigeria, one prompt at a time

"AI helps us to learn, it can serve as a tutor, it can be anything you want it to be, depending on the prompt you write," says Omorogbe Uyiosa, known as "Uyi" by his friends, a student from the Edo Boys High School, in Benin City, Nigeria. His school was one of the beneficiaries of a pilot that used generative artificial intelligence (AI) to support learning through an after-school program.

Nik Peachey's insight:

A new study in Nigeria just revealed that students using AI as an after-school tutor made learning gains equivalent to two years of traditional education in just six weeks https://blogs.worldbank.org/en/education/From-chalkboards-to-chatbots-Transforming-learning-in-Nigeria
