At Instituto México Inglés (IMI College), a pioneering school in Guadalajara, Mexico, Artificial Intelligence (AI) is a vital learning tool for students.
While debates surrounding AI usage in schools continue globally, IMI College has been at the forefront of incorporating AI into its curriculum since its accreditation by Cognia, a prominent school-accreditation body upholding US educational standards worldwide.
In 2015, IMI College began replacing traditional textbooks, teachers, and curricula with iPads, coaches, and a monthly challenge that encourages students to become investigators and researchers.
"We call them coaches because we want them to behave like sports coaches. Sports coaches don’t do the push-ups for you, don’t play the game for you. They’re on the side supporting you, but you get to play the game."
- Luis Medina, IMI Director
