Our team attended the annual European policy camp titled “AI in Education: From Policy to Practice”, organized by the European Association of Institutes for Vocational Training (EVBB). Artificial Intelligence is revolutionizing education by creating new learning experiences., and it was a remarkable event to stay up-to-date with industry trends in Artificial Intelligence (AI) and education.
This was an excellent opportunity for the INFODEF team to learn about, compare, and evaluate the latest AI advancements and their practical applications in education that could be applied to our own work. In this edition, the program included a variety of sessions addressing key topics at the intersection of AI and education, such as:
- Panel discussions on the future of AI in education, featuring experts who shared their visions on how AI will transform teaching and learning.
- Technological innovations in education: Practical workshops where participants explored AI tools designed to personalize the learning experience.
- Ethics and challenges in the use of AI: Debates on the ethical implications of using AI in educational settings, a critical topic to ensure the responsible development of these technologies.
