Today we’re releasing new @AnthropicAI research on how educators use AI, analyzing ~74,000 conversations from professors using @claudeai in collaboration with Northeastern University.
4 initial findings…
- Educators are builders, not just users of AI. Faculty are creating interactive chemistry simulations, grading rubrics, and data dashboards with Claude Artifacts.
- Educators automate the drudgery while staying in the loop for almost everything else. 77% of teaching and classroom instruction uses are collaborative, while 65% of financial/fundraising tasks are fully delegated. High-touch educational work remains human-centered.
- Notable tension in the data: 49% of grading conversations showed automation patterns, yet faculty rated this as AI’s least effective application. This disconnect highlights ongoing debates around appropriate AI use in assessment.
- AI is forcing pedagogical change. Professors are completely redesigning assessments—one shared: “I will never again assign a traditional research paper,” instead creating assignments requiring critical thinking even with AI assistance.
