AI as Teacher’s Assistant in Classrooms | Kansas City News

AI is stepping into the classroom—not to replace teachers, but to act as their digital assistant. Legend.org, which acquired the Mastery Transcript Consortium, is building AI tools that analyze student work from essays to art and presentations, checking for standards, tone, body language, and technical skill. The goal? Free up educators to focus on meaningful feedback and student growth while offering immediate, detailed insights. This aligns with schools moving beyond A-F grades toward tracking real progress in both academics and soft skills like critical thinking and collaboration. With a history of innovation—and after ETS shifted focus—Legend.org aims to revamp the transcript system so students can better showcase their evolving abilities to colleges and employers.
