• In what ways can AI (artificial intelligence) and other digital technology reduce workload, improve teaching quality, help track progress and improve outcomes? How can AI and digital technology impact on productivity, efficiency, and costs?
Background
Technology, including digital technology and artificial intelligence, has great potential to transform lives, but we need to develop our expertise to deploy them well, and to help learners, families and carers to use them safely and judiciously, taking account of the need for a healthy balance of “screen time” and time away from screens. (For brevity, please read all references to children as encompassing both children and young people where appropriate).
