When digital assistants are used to process search queries, generate driving directions, or answer voice commands, advanced technologies gather available data and use this information to perform tasks that require decision making and problem solving. These examples of machine learning have become commonplace in our everyday lives. Machine learning refers to computer algorithms that demonstrate some form of intelligence akin to human cognition--for example, differentiating images of planes and trains, or identifying hate speech in social media posts. Much of our day-to-day technology is powered by machine learning. Given its astounding acceleration, most people do not realize that they are continuously encountering machine learning all around them. This article discusses how machine learning offers unique opportunities to re-imagine how students navigate and access digital collections for classroom learning.
