Teachers: Celebrating Student Success with Khanmigo

- So our learning outcomes today,

I want to empower you

to leverage Khanmigo's capabilities.

That's really what this
learning workshop series

has been all about.

As a teacher, getting some of that time

back for the administrative task

and getting that thought partner

to help you in making those decisions.

And one way that I want you to really take

and think about today

is leveraging Khanmigo's capabilities

to gain deeper insights

into your student
understanding and progress.

So we've gotta identify
where your students are

in order for you to celebrate

how far that they've come.

And so during our time today,

we are gonna learn about how to identify

both outstanding examples of student work

and specific areas where
students can improve

through using Khanmigo's
feedback and analytics.

We're gonna share and equip each other

with practical strategies

for effectively celebrating
student achievement.

And we're also going

to foster a positive learning environment.

I want to make a note today

that today's session is short.

It is just a brief 30 minutes.

And so we are going to highlight

some features directly in Khan Academy

and Khanmigo that are connected

to the partnerships.

I do want to say we'll also highlight

some resources and
strategies that any teachers

can use to support

and celebrate student learning.

So my challenge to you this afternoon

is to listen for maybe that one thing.

What is your one thing

that you are either missing in your room

or it is something

that is just not working the way

that you want it to work?

And what is something that you hear today

that you can take away

in utilize in your classroom?

And so we're first gonna start

with Khanmigo's features.

We're gonna look at and explore

how you can leverage
Khanmigo's capabilities

to gain deeper insights

into that student progress
and understanding.

And if you are a current partner

or you have a rostered account

or you simply are watching
and want to jot down,

there are two different ways

that you can follow along today

and I would love for you to join me

in whichever way works
best for how you learn.

I am going to go to my dashboard.

Alright, so when I'm live on my dashboard,

one of the features, this
tool specifically comes

with the paid district partnership.

So Khan Academy is a nonprofit

and there are a lot of our features

and our content that
you can access anytime,

anywhere for free.

This particular tool that
I'm going to highlight

and demo for you is part
of the paid partnership.

So if you are in a district that is one

of our Khan Academy districts

through either a state deal or something

that has been purchased
within your district

or your campus, this tool
is gonna be something

that you see on your dashboard.

If you are not part of
the district partnership,

this is a tool that if you are looking

for consistent feedback

and ways to monitor student usage of AI,

this could be a leverage tool for you

to have those conversations

with your campus administrators

or your district personnel
and try to get them

to move in the direction with Khanmigo.

So first and foremost,

I'm going to hop into Khanmigo

and I'm gonna go to my "Teacher Tools".

And inside of my "Teacher Tools",

over the course of this
learning workshop series,

we've highlighted for you

all of these color coded tabs

where we're looking

at the overarching category or task.

And this particular tab I'm gonna look at,

or this tool is under "Support".

So I'm gonna go to "Support".

And then it's this tool

"Summarize Student Chat History".

Again, this is part of
your paid partnership

if you are with one

of our Khan Academy districts.

(indistinct)

So inside you are going to click in

and you will notice automatically

that Khanmigo is going
to give you an option.

It's gonna ask you to
choose a particular class.

And so I am gonna choose
one of my classes.

I would advise you and encourage you

if you are following along with me

inside of your district rostered account

for you to choose one class.

So I'm gonna click on my
dynamic action bubble,

and from there, Khanmigo is going to kick

into gear and give me
some additional actions

that I can look at.

At this time I have an opportunity

to look at top topics

or what are my students talking about

and doing with Khanmigo.

I also have an opportunity

to look at and view my students

with any flagged conversations.

So one of the major features

with Khanmigo is our moderation system.

We have lots of protocols
in place to make sure

that students are staying
safe and their chats

and interactions with Khanmigo

are very learning focused.

So at this time I am going to look

for "View top topics".

So I'm gonna click on that

and Khanmigo is gonna think about it.

And then it asks me some
follow-up questions.

So you'll notice it'll ask me

which days I would like to summarize.

So it gives me an opportunity

to adjust my timeframe.

I can go small,

I can go within the last seven days.

I could go for the last month

or if I'm looking at
over the last six weeks,

that's also something that I can do.

And you'll see any date
in the last 60 days.

So I'm gonna go with last week.

I will stop and make a note

of the accessibility feature.

So we talk about that a lot for students,

but you as educators

also have those same features.

There is a text to speech

and a speech to text availability.

And here's what Khanmigo provided for me.

So for the last week,

these are the number,

the topics that were discussed.

And then I can see the number of students

who engaged in those particular topics.

And then from here I have an opportunity

to hone in even further.

So with summarizing student chat history,

I'm able to go from a
macro view of a class down

to the tiniest view within
an individual student.

And this really gives
me a great opportunity

to gather some qualitative data

and insights on how my
students are using AI,

what kinds of conversations,

but also their learning because ultimately

that's why we've got AI,

that's why we have
Khanmigo and Khan Academy

and how those two things are going

to work together.

You can see the list of
students for each topic

and it gives me the individual topics.

And so when I click on
"Chat with Characters",

this is a particular learner activity,

Khanmigo is then gonna
continue the interaction

moving forward and allow me to see

which particular student was here.

And then I can also see

what and who they chatted on

and when that happened happened.

And so from here there's
also a really great way.

So this gives you kind
of a comprehensive view,

but then I have a point

where I have a particular student

and from here I could
ask additional questions

or I could close this out.

I also wanted to show you

that you have the capability

to drill down to see the actual chat

for a particular student.

And this is another way that you can grab

that information from Khanmigo

and utilize Khanmigo to
summarize very quickly

some of that qualitative data.

So I'm gonna click the
button up at the top,

then Khan Academy, it's
gonna send me back home.

And this is my teacher dashboard

and I'm gonna focus my efforts up here.

So if you'll notice I have different tabs

that I can choose from.

And if you have attended any

of our other learning workshops,

we go into this "Khanmigo
Tools" tab often.

We've probably addressed
this "Classes" tool.

And then we will talk a little bit more

about the "Resources" tool.

And I believe we've discussed it

in other sessions, but I want us to focus

on this "Students" tool.

So we're gonna go ahead

and click on "Classes" first,

but we'll talk about "Students".

When I look at my "Students"

I do have the ability to hone in

on a particular student and I can get

into their information

and additional data from there.

I can also do it through my "Classes".

When I go in through my "Classes"

I'm going to choose my individual student

and I can see my individual students

that are here,

and I'm looking for my chat history

and y'all, I think I might have just,

nope, there it is.

I can see what's happening

with a lot of the activity.

I also have availability to switch it up

and see my individual activities.

I can hone in on specific
Khanmigo activities

for this particular student.

So you will notice here

that there are some Khanmigo activities

that have been assigned and this student

has not had an opportunity
to look through that.

If I go back to my teacher dashboard,

I can click on "Students"
and I can also come

down and do the same thing.

So in my last little Khanmigo interaction,

you saw the name, Thomas Cass.

So I'm gonna go ahead and click on Thomas.

And from here, this is
the student dashboard.

This is what your students will see

when they are on Khan Academy,

if they're in the district partnership

or if you're utilizing the free version.

And then over on the left hand side,

there is a space under Khanmigo

for you to see chat history.

And so for this particular student,

I'm able to click on "Chat History"

and then underneath I
can change my date range

and then I can see with each day how many

and which type of chats my student,

this particular student
has actually interacted

with or opened up.

And I can also kind of get an idea

of what the content is.

So our example was chatting

with historical figures.

So I can click on that

and I get a summarized chat history.

So literally exactly what Khanmigo said

versus what the student asked them

and also talked about is available

for you to read.

And this is gonna give you a really

great picture of their learning

and their understanding
for a particular topic

and/or a particular learner activity.

Couple of questions I
want you to think about.

If you are jotting notes
down as you are watching

and you are here with us today,

first question I would love for you

to jot a few things down for is

what could this tell
you about your student?

We've talked about that qualitative data,

some anecdotes, you're
gonna see student learning,

but exactly what could this tell you

about the student?

So I want you to jot
down a couple of things

and then a second question for you today,

how could you use this

to support engaging learner behaviors?

So using AI is not something

that our students naturally know

how to do appropriately.

They're gonna try it,

they're gonna muddle through it

and they're gonna figure out on their own.

And they might also have some

not so good learner behaviors.

And so thinking about how you could

utilize a chat history

to help support those
engaging learner behaviors

and help use that as an
exemplar if you will.

And so once we kind of highlight

and understand how to see

what students are actually doing

inside with Khanmigo,
it's also really great

to be able to monitor and look

for some quantitative numbers as well

as some additional qualitative

and then also celebrate

that Khanmigo progress.

So I'm gonna go back onto the platform.

I am back on the platform

and I am going to hit
this button to send me

to my teacher dashboard.

So a couple of things I want you to think

about in terms of Khanmigo.

I want you to think about usage

and I want you to think about activity.

So when I say usage, about how much time

is actually being spent with Khanmigo.

And when I say activity, I want you

to think about the intention or the how.

How are the students
engaging with Khanmigo?

And so I'm gonna pop into one

of my district synced classes.

And on the far left side
I'm gonna scroll down

and I'm gonna look for Khanmigo.

And you'll notice that those two words,

usage and activity are the two things

that are listed underneath as something

that I can access as far as a report.

So I'm gonna click on "Usage"

and you'll notice that it's going

to give me exactly that,

the time spent utilizing Khanmigo.

So I can see over the course of time

how many students,

and you'll notice it gives it to me

in weekly chunks.

So in this particular instance,

this particular week is going

to have a few more students.

I can also adjust the date range depending

on what I'm looking at.

So I can hover and it will elaborate

and give me more information

about the students and the percentage

and how many of them were active

in the timeframe.

When I scroll down, I then can look

at each individual student

in that particular class.

And then I have some
direct number insights.

For each student, I can see how many chats

that they've had with Khanmigo,

just how frequently are they interacting.

I can also see the number of messages

so that back and forth,

that discourse, is it just a,

"Hi, give me an answer,"

or opening up and saying one thing.

And then I can also see

how many different activities

that they engage with Khanmigo.

This particular student has 10.

And then the most important

that I wanted to draw attention to

is this flag chat.

So here again our moderation

and safety protocols we have in place.

You have a very quick way

to view the flag chats

per your intentional students.

So this is all about usage,

this is when students
are utilizing Khanmigo.

The other tab is this "Activity" tab.

And here it will give you an idea

of all of your students.

And again, you can make an adjustment

for the timeframe if you wanted to look

for the last week, for the last month

or overall you could.

And then it lists for you all

of the individual activities with Khanmigo

that students could
possibly be engaged with.

And then you see the number of chats

that are unique chats that are associated

with that particular activity.

You will notice that
three of these activities

have a little caret out to the side.

These are associated with content

inside of a course
somewhere on our platform.

With the caret, if I touch the caret,

I'm able to expand out

and I can see in which course has this

activity actually been activated

and this interaction happened.

So I can see that it's happened

within "Algebra 1" and
then there's another

little caret.

So I can click on that

and it will show me which
unit of study I have

these unique chats and I can see how many

and then the percentage
of the unique chats

that are happening

within that particular unit of study.

So it's gonna give me
an idea of the content

that my students are requesting support on

and how they're utilizing
Khanmigo in companion

with their learning across the board.

And so these two reports
are a really great way

for you to monitor your students' progress

when they are utilizing Khanmigo

in the classroom, whether it be

those standalone activities

or within the content in the courses.

The flip side of that,
once you start to monitor,

it's also really great for you to identify

where you need to celebrate
some student progress

in student learning and
even just moving forward

and learning with Khanmigo
or utilizing Khanmigo.

And so we're gonna go
back to our dashboard

and we're going to address this fourth tab

that's up at the top
is our "Resource" tab.

So if you have not had an opportunity,

either you in a district partnership

or you utilizing the free version,

you have access to these resources.

Inside this, you will
note that there is a tab

that says "Printables".

And I'm gonna scroll past

and go to my "Engagement printables".

These are all Blackline Masters

that are available for
you to click, make a copy

and make any adjustments
that you might want to.

One thing I wanted to highlight

for you is this "Certificate" resource.

So we are at the end of the year.

I know that awards
assemblies are happening.

I know that end of year
recognition is going on,

there's just a lot of closing

out of the school year

and there might be a
student or a few students

who have worked really hard with Khanmigo

or worked really hard
inside of Khan Academy.

And so I wanna show you this certificate.

This is an opportunity
for you to make a copy

and you'll notice that it is

inside a Google Slides,

which means once you make a copy of it,

you can also edit.

These five examples,

I go from Mastery Captain to Grand Tutor,

Mastery Challenger,
Certificate of Appreciation,

but also Mastery Captain.

So right now all of these certificates

are really focused in on Khan Academy

and our courses.

But you can utilize Khanmigo

to help support you get some ideas

for Khanmigo type awards.

So I wanna show you what that looks like.

I'm gonna keep this here

and I'm gonna go back to my Khan Academy

and I'm gonna go Khan Academy

and I'm gonna go to my "Teacher Tools"

and then I'm gonna go to my "Learn" tab

and my "Chat with GPT".

And inside my "Chat with GPT",

I'm gonna say, "Give me five award names

for a teacher to give out to students

related to how they engage with Khanmigo."

Period.

And voila!

In just a matter of seconds,

you don't have to think
about potential awards.

You could get ideas for award names

and then utilize the reports

that I have shown you here today

to find those students

who meet this particular criteria.

Then you can use our certificates.

So I could come in here
and I could literally say

this very first one is
"Khanmigo Explore Award".

I can come in here

and I can say "Khanmigo Explore Award".

I can make adjustments to my template.

I may need to make this
just a little bit smaller.

And I spelled award wrong.

There we go.

Put the name of the student there.

Then you could print it out, sign it,

and then you can give it

and you can have a cute
little awards assembly

inside of this particular classroom

to highlight students who
have really gone above

and beyond utilizing Khanmigo

to help support their particular learning.

You'll notice it'll give you the award

and then it gives you
a little blurb looking

for which students are the ones

that you might want to consider

for your certificates.

Curiosity Champion, Collaboration Star,

Persistence Pioneer Award.

I love that for students
who just keep going

and keep going and working

through those challenges
utilizing Khanmigo

and then of course, always
your Creative thinker.

Those are all different ways

and different awards

that you might consider using

as we close out our year and you've been

utilizing Khan Academy and/or Khanmigo.

And with that, our time is a drawing

to a quick close.

I just wanted to reintroduce
the Arizona team,

but also the West Coast
team that supports you.

We are all here.

We are a dedicated Khan Academy team.

We want to answer questions

and support you in your classroom.

And as India pointed out,

India is one of my colleagues here

with Khan Academy and she is one

of the team members as
well that the reports

can give great insight

into student usage and learning.

So those are things that you want

to consider putting together.

And as this is the the
last learning workshop

of this Spring series, our team to you,

we really wanted to say thank you

from the bottom of our heart

for attending our series.

It was fast and furious.

I feel like we've covered a lot of ground

and a lot of content and we truly

appreciate your partnership,

whether it is through
a district partnership

and you are a rostered teacher

or it's through grassroots usage,

or you have come to these
series to learn more

and to arm yourself with
information to go back

to your administrators

or your district personnel.

And we are here to further our mission

of a free, world-class education

for anyone, anywhere.

So we're just here to help support you

and give you the tools and resources.
