Topic: Generative Artificial Intelligence to improve Learning in Students with Dyslexia: Dream or Reality?

Date and Time: 8:00 PM to 9:00 PM in GMT+8, 23 September 2024, 2024

Abstract

Generative Artificial intelligence (GAl), has now fully entered the field of learning, for people at all ages, it is now a fact that ChatGPT is used by millions of people as a support in both work and education. In the world, however, there are many people suffering from learning disorder.such as dyslexia, dyscalculia, dysorthography and other specific learning disorders. This means that, especially in MOOCs, where there is no continuous relationship with the teacher, students with such disorders suffer in learning, This talk aims to reason about the use of GAl to support students with specific disorders, and in particular students with dyslexia, during their learning process. To this end, the state of the art together several works concerning the use of intelligent systems, are presented , with particular reference to intelligent chatbots, Some state-of-the-art systems will be shown.
