2022 research by the UK's National Education Union has found that nearly half of all teachers \[a staggering 44%\] plan to leave the profession by 2027 and that 'over half of teachers say their workload is either 'unmanageable' or 'unmanageable most of the time' \[up from 35% in 2021\]. The loss of these skilled-practitioners deprives experience, knowledge, resources and specialism from the education profession: affecting over 10 million young people and 1000s more inexperienced teachers, who will never benefit from their tutelage, in the UK alone.This project will explore AI as an innovative vehicle for the 'publication' and subsequent 'preservation' of professional people: serving both the creative \[publishing\] industry and sectors with current/predicted skilled-labour shortages.This proposed work will seek to embed the expertise of one experienced practitioner into existing edtech platform, EdenFiftyOne. The person in focus for this 'feasibility study' is a former English teacher, teacher-trainer and UK Specialist Leader of Education with 20 years' experience and a track-record of success in raising standards of secondary teaching, learning and assessment. Tom Reynolds is also the founder/CEO of the award-winning 'EdenFiftyOne' edtech platform.EdenFiftyOne \[EFO\] promotes 51 universal skills of reading, writing, speaking and listening: the skills that under-pin the teaching, learning and assessment of English language and literacy education across the globe.Whilst the EFO platform clarifies, monitors and tracks the 51 skills \[providing a clear picture of progress/priorities for teachers and students\], Tom Reynolds is frequently asked to 'teach' the skills, in person, for the benefit of teachers and students, at schools across the country and, more recently, internationally, via remote means. Feedback and testimonials from EFO users have even suggested that the platform would truly benefit from 'having Tom inside it'.This feasibility study will digitalize selected aspects of Tom Reynolds' skill-based English teaching, as promoted by the EFO platform. Embedding a closed-AI interface within EFO, will enable any number of teachers and learners to access \[and interact with\] his knowledge, experience and sector-specialism, from anywhere, at any time and to an unlimited degree.In the absence of sector specialists, this concept will help to 'up-skill' the less-confident, less-experienced, less-specialist and those for whom physical access is limited. Once this concept has been proven, the creative sector will have a blue-print for AI as an innovative vehicle and contemporary format for the publishing industry: 'the publishing and preserving of people'.

英国国家教育联盟2022年的一项研究发现，近一半的教师计划在2027年之前离开这个职业，超过一半的教师表示，他们的工作量‘无法管理’或‘大部分时间都无法管理’[2021年这一比例为35%]。这些熟练从业者的流失剥夺了教育专业的经验、知识、资源和专业：仅在英国就影响到1000多万年轻人和数千名缺乏经验的教师，他们永远不会从他们的指导中受益。该项目将探索人工智能作为一种创新工具，用于‘出版’和随后的‘保存’专业人才：既服务于创意[出版]行业，也服务于当前/预测的熟练劳动力短缺的部门。这项拟议的工作将寻求将一名经验丰富的从业者的专业知识嵌入到现有的教育技术平台EdenFifftyOne中。这项“可行性研究”的焦点是一位前英语教师、教师培训师和英国教育专家领袖，他有20年的经验，在提高中学教学、学习和评估标准方面取得了成功。汤姆·雷诺兹也是屡获殊荣的EdenFityOne教育技术平台的创始人/首席执行官。EdenFityOne[EFO]推广了51项阅读、写作、口语和听力的通用技能：这些技能支撑着全球英语语言和识字教育的教、学和评估。虽然EFO平台澄清、监控和跟踪这51项技能[为教师和学生提供了一幅清晰的进度/优先事项\]，但汤姆·雷诺兹经常被要求在全国各地的学校，为了教师和学生的利益，亲自教授这些技能，最近，还通过远程方式在国际上传授。来自EFO用户的反馈和推荐信甚至表明，该平台将真正受益于“有汤姆在里面”。这项可行性研究将把EFO平台推动的汤姆·雷诺兹基于技能的英语教学的部分内容数字化。在EFO中嵌入封闭的人工智能界面，将使任何数量的教师和学习者能够随时随地无限地访问他的知识、经验和行业专长并与之互动。在没有行业专家的情况下，这一概念将有助于提高信心不足、经验不足、专业水平较低的人和物理访问受限的人的技能。一旦这一概念得到证实，创意部门将为人工智能作为一种创新工具和出版业的当代模式制定一份蓝图：“出版和保存人”。
