Critical discourse in education involves open, reflective discussion that challenges underlying assumptions, promotes analytical thinking, and fosters intellectual engagement. It is not merely about transmitting information but about encouraging learners to question, debate, and reconstruct their understanding of concepts and values. This process enriches learning by cultivating critical thinking skills and deepening comprehension beyond mere content absorption.

AI promises to reshape education by tailoring learning experiences to individual needs, streamlining administrative tasks, and broadening access to knowledge. However, as we embrace these efficiencies, we must also reflect on the potential impact on the human elements of education—such as mentorship and critical discourse—and guard against reducing education to mere information transfer.
