Artificial Intelligence can unlock the value trapped in massive amounts of data at educational institutions and organizations. Access to this data through Artificial Intelligence can be used to create customized assessments of students in a skill-based education to help prepare them more quickly to advance in their program. AI can sift through the data and create a curriculum focused on a student’s strengths and needs, thus making the educational program more useful leading to employment-ready graduates.

“You can have a great tutor for every single learner”, Euro Beinat, Global Head of AI and Data Science at Prosus Group, tells the audience in his DLD talk, which describes in detail the potential of AI for education.

Initially, AI models did not live up to their promises, Beinat observes, because they often provided generic answers rather than personalized responses. But by retraining models on educational data and developing control methods, Prosus managed to make great progress.

Can slowing down actually help schools move forward with AI?

Ben Kornell explores the tension between rapid innovation and public trust.

While delaying AI adoption can make it harder for schools to keep pace with change, moving too quickly also risks losing the confidence of parents, teachers, and students.

Rather than rushing ahead, Ben suggests that taking time to establish clear frameworks for responsible AI could lead to stronger long-term adoption.

Sometimes, thoughtful progress is what keeps innovation moving forward.

The llama dances. What more evidence do you need?! 😂

But seriously… I know I have work to do here too.

I look around and it’s tech, tech, tech. At school. At home. In restaurants. In the car. Waiting in line. Sometimes because it’s useful…and sometimes because it’s just become the default.

And then we wonder why kids struggle when the stimulation disappears.

Schools need to ask whether every piece of technology is actually making learning better.

And as a parent? I need to look at what’s happening at home too. Because this is a two-way street.

Maybe we ALL need to get a little more comfortable letting kids be bored, move, make things, talk, read, play…and exist without something constantly entertaining them.

Where have YOU noticed tech becoming the default when it probably doesn’t need to be? 👇

The EdTech industry is at a critical crossroads.
Rapid innovation in artificial intelligence, learning platforms, and digital tools promises personalization and efficiency — yet the sector is facing a growing crisis of trust.

In this analysis, we explore the AI paradox in education: how intelligent systems can both transform learning and reinforce outdated pedagogical models, increase data privacy risks, and widen the gap between technology developers and educators.

This video examines:
1. The future of AI in education and digital learning
2. Why personalization at scale can conflict with ethics and transparency
3. The communication gap between EdTech developers and teachers
4. Market fragmentation and the lack of shared standards in global EdTech
5. Why strategic collaboration and co-design with educators matter more than rapid growth

The future of education will not be defined by automation alone.
Real progress depends on using digital learning technologies to develop critical thinking, creativity, and meaningful learning experiences — grounded in ethics, trust, and transparency.

Success or failure in EdTech will depend on the choices we make today.

This video is relevant for:
- Digital learning developers
- Instructional designers
- EdTech founders and product managers
- Educators and innovation leaders

The Lifetime Value potential in Edtech is quite amazing. If someone created a subscription service that attracted students from the time they were in primary school through college graduation, that alone creates an LTV of $20,000—or twice as much as Apple! Hear from learning leaders who’ve managed to capture learners across different age groups and how they think of increasing long-term retention.

The 2023 Star Track is presented in partnership with William Blair.

"Oh, we got it covered." That's what every EdTech and mental health app told Stephen Calhoun when he asked about AI safety. Turns out most of them are relying on system prompts — and the more instructions you stuff into one, the more it actually dilutes the AI's answers. That gap is exactly what his company SASI exists to close.

Ep. 36 out now on our channel 🎧

Hosted by Ben Whately, Co-founder and CSO of Memrise, this webinar addresses the countless, exciting ways in which generative AI is changing the EdTech landscape as we speak. We'll hear from Ben, who will discuss his own experience at Memrise and beyond, plus a panel of leading experts in the EdTech space.

Our panel includes Joshua Wöhle (Founder CEO of Mindstone), Sarah Touzani (Founder CEO of Waggle), Raza Habib (Founder CTO of Humanloop) and Patricia Scanlon (Ireland’s AI Ambassador and Founder of SoapBox).

Claims that edtech can save learning or replace teachers are unlikely to come true. Especially in ELT where the uptake of tech to aid learning has been minimal. Products are often thrown at education to just 'help' students learn more, but what if technology could be used to learn from the students? The insights that technology can give us into the learning behaviour of an individual has the potential to expand our understanding of language learning. Harnessing the power of data analytics, AI and machine learning could create a feedback system for educators that has the potential to reinform teaching instruction and maximise learning.

AI education is no longer just a future topic — it is becoming part of school education.

For the 2026–27 academic session, CBSE has introduced a Computational Thinking (CT) and Artificial Intelligence (AI) curriculum for Classes III–VIII. The curriculum focuses on developing skills such as logical thinking, problem-solving, pattern recognition, digital literacy, creativity, and responsible use of technology.

But the important question for school management is:

How do we make AI education practical inside the classroom?

How do we support teachers?
How do we give students meaningful hands-on experience?
How do we move beyond theory and help students build real-world skills?

At BuildMind AI Academy, we work with schools as an AI Academic Partner to bring practical AI learning to students through projects, problem-solving, creativity, and hands-on learning.

🏫 If your school is exploring practical AI education for students, let's connect.

Host Scott Titsworth talks with Ali Arsan, Founder and CEO of Edlio, the K-12 communications platform used by more than 19,000 schools across North America. After 25-plus years in education technology, Arsan argues that most EdTech has prioritized its own growth over the needs of educators and families, leaving schools juggling disconnected platforms while families get lost in the middle. The conversation covers the roots of platform fragmentation, what a real school-family partnership requires, and where Arsan believes AI can genuinely help improve communication and information flow.

In Episode 373 of My EdTech Life, Dr. Alfonso Mendoza sits down with Dacia Toll, co-founder of Coursemojo, to challenge how schools measure the value of educational technology.

Logins, minutes, and completed activities may show that a platform was used, but they do not prove that meaningful learning occurred. Dacia explains why districts must look beyond usage data and demand stronger evidence of student thinking, instructional impact, and academic growth.

Together, we explore the middle school literacy crisis, the difference between decoding and comprehension, and why classroom discussions can sometimes make thinking optional for many students. Dacia also shares how AI can support productive struggle, provide timely feedback, and help teachers identify misconceptions without replacing human judgment or student collaboration.

In this conversation, we discuss:

• Why reading proficiency requires more than decoding
• How disconnected interventions can create instructional confusion
• Why AI should preserve productive struggle
• The difference between receiving feedback and using it
• How EdTech can support teacher workflow without becoming the lesson
• What outcomes-based contracting could mean for district accountability
• Why safety, efficacy, and outcomes should guide EdTech decisions
• How educators can look beyond AI hype and evaluate what works locally

Stay Techie!

What if the most important EdTech skill isn't knowing which tool to use?

What if it's knowing when technology can actually help?

New apps, AI tools, platforms, and trends appear constantly. Educators can't realistically keep up with everything—and they don't need to.

In Episode 270 of the House of EdTech, Chris Nesi introduces the Anytime EdTech Mindset, a practical framework for thinking about technology with more purpose and less pressure.

The framework is simple:

A — Ask
N — Notice
Y — Your Learners First
T — Try
I — Iterate
M — Make Meaning
E — Evolve

This isn't a framework for using more technology. It's a framework for deciding when technology is actually worth using.

In this episode, you'll learn how to:

- Start with the problem instead of the tool.
- Observe what's actually happening before trying to fix it.
- Put your learners at the center of technology decisions.
- Experiment without waiting to become an expert.
- Learn from imperfect first attempts.
- Decide whether technology actually improved learning.
- Keep what works and let go of what doesn't.
- Build confidence when new tools and opportunities appear.

You don't need to know every app or chase every AI tool. You need a way to think when technology, challenges, and opportunities come your way.
