How are school leaders, policymakers and teachers planning to work with AI in the classroom? What does AI mean for the way we teach, assess and understand learning and the cultures and practices of schooling? This event will bring together key figures from the Scottish education landscape to talk about AI in schools and our education futures.
The event will be public-facing, and carefully designed to provoke active discussion and debate with the audience. It will build on research taking place over recent years at the University of Edinburgh with the Data Education in Schools and BRAID research programmes and draw on the wide network of schools and sector leads who have cocreated this work . It will provide audiences with engaging insights from colleagues working with AI at the chalk-face of teaching and policy development, opening up debate to a wider public audience.
The event will be relevant to anyone with an interest in schools, schooling and education policy futures.
This event is part of the Edinburgh Futures Institute's free public events series Learning Curves, taking place from October-December 2024. Tickets are free but booking is essential.
