AI Tools in Classroom Help Teachers Keep Students Engaged
教室里的人工智能：帮助教师让学生参与其中
As teachers leave class discussions they know that not all the students are paying attention.Some were bored or distracted but for others like Clement South Middle School student Sean Novick focusing at school is been a struggle because of autism.When I was little and started elementary school, I was not a big fan of learning;I did not like school at all and then when I became part of this I've became the exact opposite.
当老师离开课堂讨论时，他们知道并不是所有的学生都在关注。有些人感到无聊或心烦意乱，但对克莱门特南中学的学生肖恩·诺维克来说，由于自闭症，在学校集中注意力一直是一件难事。当我很小的时候开始上小学，我根本不想上课我也一点也不喜欢上学，可当我成为这个项目其中一员的时候，我就完全相反了。
This is new technology from a Boston-based start-up called Brain Power which helps teachers keep students engaged especially if they're struggling due to a learning disability.Norwick uses Google Glass in the classroom.I enjoyed working with Brain Power because it helps me with eye contact and well the Google Glass helps me with eye contact.Google glass is just one the tools Brain Power has rolled out for classrooms.
这是波士顿一家名为Brain Power的创业公司开发的一项新技术，它可以帮助教师让学生参与其中，尤其是当他们因学习障碍而感到困难时。诺威克在教室里佩戴谷歌眼镜。我喜欢用脑力工作，因为它能帮助我进行眼神交流，而谷歌眼镜能帮助我进行眼神交流，谷歌眼镜就是为课堂提供的一种脑力产品。
Another new technology is called Learning Eye which uses Amazon's DeepLens camera placed in front of the class.Brain Power CEO Ned Sahin says the camera is connected to a computer, running machine, learning algorithms.The artificial intelligence detects things like when students are paying attention to the teacher,when they are looking down and texting and when they are looking at each other and maybe being distracted.
另一项新技术叫做“学习眼”，它使用的是亚马逊的DeepLens相机，放在班级前面。Brain Power的首席执行官内德·萨欣说，这款摄像头与一台电脑、一台正在运行的机器以及学习算法相连。这种人工智能能够检测出学生们在关注老师的时候，在他们低头发短信的时候，在他们互相看着对方的时候，或者是在分心的时候。
Teacher Johnathan Hall says the technology is like having another set of eyes in the classroom.As a teacher, typically I'm in a class just by myself.So you know, we try our best to be able to understand, you know, that the kids are focused and paying attention.
乔纳森·霍尔老师说这项技术就像在教室里有另一双眼睛。作为一名老师，我通常是一个人在课堂上。所以你知道，我们尽我们最大的努力去理解，你知道，让孩子们集中注意力。
If they're stressed out, if you know what's going on but it's a lot of personalities and in a typical day,you know, on top of trying to teach content, some of the things are lost. With the new tools, teachers will have an easier time teaching content and reaching all their students.
如果他们有压力，如果你知道发生了什么，但你面对的是一个个人，他们有自己的性格。比如说某天，因为我要讲一些重点课文，有些其它东西可能就会被我忽略。有了这些新工具，教师们就可以更容易地教授内容，并接触到所有的学生。
