The integration of tools like Alexa or ChatGPT in classrooms represents a significant transformation in education, offering exciting opportunities but also presenting challenges that cannot be overlooked.

On one hand, artificial intelligence (AI) has the potential to enhance learning by providing quick answers, personalizing education, and freeing teachers from repetitive administrative tasks. This would allow educators to focus on higher-value pedagogical activities, such as fostering critical thinking and creativity in students. Additionally, AI could offer educational support to those who need reinforcement, making education more accessible and adaptable to different learning paces.

However, the presence of AI in classrooms also raises ethical, pedagogical, and privacy dilemmas. One major concern is that AI could undermine teachers’ authority if students rely too much on automated responses instead of engaging in learning processes guided by their instructors. Furthermore, the risk of biases in AI-generated information, the possibility of errors in data, and the lack of transparency in algorithms could impact the quality of education.

Another challenge is inequality in access to technology. While some schools may fully leverage AI tools, others with fewer resources could fall behind, widening the educational gap. Privacy concerns also arise, as using AI in classrooms involves collecting and managing student data, requiring clear and robust regulations to protect this information.

The debate over AI regulation in education is crucial. The existence of international conferences and discussions on legal frameworks indicates an effort to balance innovation with ethics and equity. In the future, it is likely that specific AI curricula will be implemented in schools—not only to teach responsible use but also to prepare students for a world where AI will play a central role.

Ultimately, the evolution of AI policies and networks in education will depend on how appropriate regulations are implemented. Policymakers must ensure that AI remains a supportive tool rather than a replacement for teachers and that its integration upholds equity and security. The key will be to strike a balance where AI enhances teaching without replacing the essential human interaction needed for meaningful learning.

What are the implications of artificial intelligence (AI) and other emerging technologies for education? On 24-25 October, government experts, representatives from international organisations, private sector companies and civil society organisations will meet in Strasbourg to discuss how to leverage the potential benefits of AI in the context of education while at the same time, protecting users from related risks and challenges.

At the 26th session of the Standing Conference of Ministers of Education, the Ministers of Education supported the proposal for the development of a legal instrument to regulate the use of AI systems in education that would help promote human rights and respect for the rule of law. The forthcoming legal instrument would complement the Council of Europe Framework Convention on Artificial Intelligence, Human Rights, Democracy and the Rule of Law by delineating and further defining the implementation of the provisions of the Convention to the education sector.

During the two-day conference, the main aspects of the development of such instrument will be discussed, in particular relevant recommendations will be put forward to protect human rights and ensure the ethical use of AI in educational settings. The comprehensive and nuanced regulatory framework will ensure that AI systems advance learning without causing harm, foster equal access to educational opportunities and safeguard the rights and interests of learners.

Relevant work of the Council of Europe Education Department will be presented during the conference and participants will provide their insights on how to shape the next steps of the development of the legal instrument. Furthermore, participants will share their views on how to regulate AI in education while at the same time fostering innovation and creativity.

The experts will also provide inputs on the policy toolkit developed by the Council of Europe Education Department relating to teaching and learning with and about AI and on the feasibility study regarding the development of a pan-European evaluation framework to assess technologies used in education settings.

2025 Predictions: AI's Impact on Education

What should schools and districts expect from the evolving landscape of artificial intelligence in the coming year? Here's what the experts told us.

In an open call last month, we asked education and ed tech industry leaders for their predictions on developments in artificial intelligence for 2025. Their responses highlighted the wide variety of areas where AI could impact students, teachers, and administrators - for better or for worse. Here's what they told us.

"In 2025, a greater number of school systems will actively seek to deepen their understanding of artificial intelligence to enhance both system office and school-based operations. This strategic focus will aim at improving operational efficiencies through AI-driven analytics and automation, streamlining everything from resource allocation to student attendance and engagement tracking.

"To demystify AI and unlock its potential across educational settings, we will see a surge in 'AI 101' professional development courses for educators. These sessions will provide a fundamental understanding of AI and explore its benefits and risks within an educational framework. Such initiatives will equip educators with the knowledge to critically assess the role of AI in education and its ethical implications.

"Additionally, more educators will harness AI to refine and differentiate their instructional design, using adaptive learning technologies to tailor lessons to the varied learning styles and needs of students. This personalized approach will enable more effective teaching, catering to individual student needs at scale and fostering a more inclusive learning environment.

"Through these initiatives, school systems will enhance their operational capacities and empower educators to leverage AI in innovative ways that improve educational outcomes and operational efficiencies."
- Dr. Leslie Torres-Rodriguez, superintendent, Hartford Public Schools

"In 2025, I predict we'll see a rise in state and federal legislation around the use of artificial intelligence in classrooms. But even with the best intentions, legislators may end up inadvertently putting up barriers for tools that are actually helping students learn. It's going to be incredibly important for institutions and policymakers to truly understand the difference between generative AI tools - which may compromise the learning process or lack the proper technological safety systems to be appropriate for student use -and learning tools that incorporate safe and tested algorithms to support authentic teaching and learning workflows."
- Kelsey Behringer, CEO, Packback

"AI is revolutionizing our world and education must keep pace. As this technology becomes increasingly central to workforce, innovation, and economic opportunity, we must transform the way we prepare students for that future. All students must also be provided with the opportunity to learn how to use AI effectively, ethically, and safely."
- Andrew Flood, CEO, Prodigy Learning

"The future of AI in K-12 education is as promising as it is transformative. AI can automate administrative tasks, which means more time for our teachers to focus on instruction and student interaction. Schools will also look to AI to personalize the learning experiences, adapting to each student's pace and style, making learning more engaging, meaningful, and effective. Educational applications now have intelligent tutoring built in to provide instant feedback, which is a game changer for the learning process. AI-driven analytics can identify learning gaps and suggest targeted interventions or differentiators for student needs, ensuring all students are appropriately supported and adequately challenged. The important crux of successful AI integration, as with most educational technology initiatives, is the integration and teachers' professional development. Overall, AI has the potential to revolutionize schools, making it more personalized, efficient, and inclusive on a path to equity in education."
