Reseña del libro "Teaching Beyond the Machine (en Inglés)"
AI can produce an answer in seconds. Education still has to form the person who can understand it, question it, verify it, and use it responsibly.Teaching Beyond the Machine examines one of the defining challenges of modern education: how can teachers and schools use artificial intelligence without confusing polished output with genuine learning?Grounded in educational psychology, learning science, language development, AI literacy, and emerging research on generative AI, Jean R. Lain?, Ph.D., offers a human-centered framework for educators who want to benefit from AI without surrendering professional judgment or student agency. Rather than asking whether AI is simply good or bad, the book asks a more useful question: What should remain with the learner, the teacher, and the human community?Readers will examine how AI affects: learning, memory, cognitive offloading, and transfer;multilingual learners and language development;motivation, belonging, feedback, and teacher-student relationships;critical thinking, source verification, hallucinations, and AI literacy;assessment, academic integrity, privacy, policy, accessibility, and equity;teacher autonomy, instructional design, and professional accountability; andfuture readiness, career preparation, adaptability, and responsible use of AI.A substantial chapter on AI literacy for educators moves from system fundamentals and prompt design to verification, privacy, developmental judgment, assessment, and a four-level decision framework: Augment, Supervise, Restrict, and Human-Led. Throughout the book, practical classroom cases and decision protocols show how to use AI as a support for access, practice, feedback, and creativity without allowing it to replace the intellectual work students need to develop.Teaching Beyond the Machine is written for K-12 and higher-education teachers, school and district leaders, instructional coaches, teacher educators, curriculum specialists, multilingual/ELD educators, and anyone responsible for making consequential decisions about AI in learning.This is a book about technology, but its deepest concern is education itself: helping learners become knowledgeable, capable, discerning, responsible, and increasingly able to think and act beyond the assistance of any machine.
