This week, I attended the Teach First ‘AI in Education’ summit.
I had the privilege of joining Teach First, other educators, industry experts, and policy leaders to explore how we can use AI within education.
The highlights for me included:
- Gaining insights into how TeachMateAI is being used in practice and its potential to support teachers, in some wonderful talks and Demo’s by Jon Chippindall.
- An introduction to the ‘AI Safety’ resources as part of the Raspberry Pi Foundations ‘Experience AI’ curriculum, led by Rachel Arthur.
- Hearing Professor Rose Luckin give her thoughts on the evolving AI landscape post release-of-ChatGPT and what it means for schools.
What really struck me was hearing about how the government / DfE are trying to build (or support the building of) tools to help teachers with their workload and within the classroom, during the talks and panels by policy leaders.
However, as with an event like this, the best part was getting to meet more people and widen my network.
Huge thanks to Teach First and all the contributors for creating this event to have these exciting conversations.
