Trinidad and Tobago has launched its first two AI-assisted digital textbooks for Form One students using government-issued laptops. Education Minister Dr Michael Dowlath said four more titles will be added before the new school year in September, covering Science, Information Technology, Social Studies and Spanish.
The ministry said the six textbooks could save parents between TT$1,000 and TT$1,500 per child and reduce the burden of heavy book bags. Dowlath said the digital books are designed to support, not replace, teachers, and include offline access, avatars, videos and curriculum-aligned content for students, including those with learning challenges.
