New advances in technology are upending education, from the recent debut of new artificial intelligence (AI) chatbots like ChatGPT to the growing accessibility of virtual-reality tools that expand the boundaries of the classroom. For educators, at the heart of it all is the hope that every learner gets an equal chance to develop the skills they need to succeed. But that promise is not without its pitfalls.

“Technology is a game-changer for education – it offers the prospect of universal access to high-quality learning experiences, and it creates fundamentally new ways of teaching,” said Dan Schwartz, dean of Stanford Graduate School of Education (GSE), who is also a professor of educational technology at the GSE and faculty director of the Stanford Accelerator for Learning . “But there are a lot of ways we teach that aren’t great, and a big fear with AI in particular is that we just get more efficient at teaching badly. This is a moment to pay attention, to do things differently.”

For K-12 schools, this year also marks the end of the Elementary and Secondary School Emergency Relief (ESSER) funding program, which has provided pandemic recovery funds that many districts used to invest in educational software and systems. With these funds running out in September 2024, schools are trying to determine their best use of technology as they face the prospect of diminishing resources.

Here, Schwartz and other Stanford education scholars weigh in on some of the technology trends taking center stage in the classroom this year.

AI in the classroom

In 2023, the big story in technology and education was generative AI, following the introduction of ChatGPT and other chatbots that produce text seemingly written by a human in response to a question or prompt. Educators immediately worried that students would use the chatbot to cheat by trying to pass its writing off as their own. As schools move to adopt policies around students’ use of the tool, many are also beginning to explore potential opportunities – for example, to generate reading assignments or coach students during the writing process.

AI can also help automate tasks like grading and lesson planning, freeing teachers to do the human work that drew them into the profession in the first place, said Victor Lee, an associate professor at the GSE and faculty lead for the AI + Education initiative at the Stanford Accelerator for Learning. “I’m heartened to see some movement toward creating AI tools that make teachers’ lives better – not to replace them, but to give them the time to do the work that only teachers are able to do,” he said. “I hope to see more on that front.”

He also emphasized the need to teach students now to begin questioning and critiquing the development and use of AI. “AI is not going away,” said Lee, who is also director of CRAFT (Classroom-Ready Resources about AI for Teaching), which provides free resources to help teach AI literacy to high school students across subject areas. “We need to teach students how to understand and think critically about this technology.”

Immersive environments

The use of immersive technologies like augmented reality, virtual reality, and mixed reality is also expected to surge in the classroom, especially as new high-profile devices integrating these realities hit the marketplace in 2024.

The educational possibilities now go beyond putting on a headset and experiencing life in a distant location. With new technologies, students can create their own local interactive 360-degree scenarios, using just a cell phone or inexpensive camera and simple online tools.

“This is an area that’s really going to explode over the next couple of years,” said Kristen Pilner Blair, director of research for the Digital Learning initiative at the Stanford Accelerator for Learning, which runs a program exploring the use of virtual field trips to promote learning. “Students can learn about the effects of climate change, say, by virtually experiencing the impact on a particular environment. But they can also become creators, documenting and sharing immersive media that shows the effects where they live.”

Integrating AI into virtual simulations could also soon take the experience to another level, Schwartz said. “If your VR experience brings me to a redwood tree, you could have a window pop up that allows me to ask questions about the tree, and AI can deliver the answers.”

Gamification

Another trend expected to intensify this year is the gamification of learning activities, often featuring dynamic videos with interactive elements to engage and hold students’ attention.

“Gamification is a good motivator, because one key aspect is reward, which is very powerful,” said Schwartz. The downside? Rewards are specific to the activity at hand, which may not extend to learning more generally. “If I get rewarded for doing math in a space-age video game, it doesn’t mean I’m going to be motivated to do math anywhere else.”

Gamification sometimes tries to make “chocolate-covered broccoli,” Schwartz said, by adding art and rewards to make speeded response tasks involving single-answer, factual questions more fun. He hopes to see more creative play patterns that give students points for rethinking an approach or adapting their strategy, rather than only rewarding them for quickly producing a correct response.

Data-gathering and analysis

The growing use of technology in schools is producing massive amounts of data on students’ activities in the classroom and online. “We’re now able to capture moment-to-moment data, every keystroke a kid makes,” said Schwartz – data that can reveal areas of struggle and different learning opportunities, from solving a math problem to approaching a writing assignment.

But outside of research settings, he said, that type of granular data – now owned by tech companies – is more likely used to refine the design of the software than to provide teachers with actionable information.

The promise of personalized learning is being able to generate content aligned with students’ interests and skill levels, and making lessons more accessible for multilingual learners and students with disabilities. Realizing that promise requires that educators can make sense of the data that’s being collected, said Schwartz – and while advances in AI are making it easier to identify patterns and findings, the data also needs to be in a system and form educators can access and analyze for decision-making. Developing a usable infrastructure for that data, Schwartz said, is an important next step.

With the accumulation of student data comes privacy concerns: How is the data being collected? Are there regulations or guidelines around its use in decision-making? What steps are being taken to prevent unauthorized access? In 2023 K-12 schools experienced a rise in cyberattacks, underscoring the need to implement strong systems to safeguard student data.

Technology is “requiring people to check their assumptions about education,” said Schwartz, noting that AI in particular is very efficient at replicating biases and automating the way things have been done in the past, including poor models of instruction. “But it’s also opening up new possibilities for students producing material, and for being able to identify children who are not average so we can customize toward them. It’s an opportunity to think of entirely new ways of teaching – this is the path I hope to see.”

Information and communication technology (ICT) in education

Information and communications technology (ict) can impact student learning when teachers are digitally literate and understand how to integrate it into curriculum..

Schools use a diverse set of ICT tools to communicate, create, disseminate, store, and manage information.(6) In some contexts, ICT has also become integral to the teaching-learning interaction, through such approaches as replacing chalkboards with interactive digital whiteboards, using students’ own smartphones or other devices for learning during class time, and the “flipped classroom” model where students watch lectures at home on the computer and use classroom time for more interactive exercises.

When teachers are digitally literate and trained to use ICT, these approaches can lead to higher order thinking skills, provide creative and individualized options for students to express their understandings, and leave students better prepared to deal with ongoing technological change in society and the workplace.(18)

ICT issues planners must consider include: considering the total cost-benefit equation, supplying and maintaining the requisite infrastructure, and ensuring investments are matched with teacher support and other policies aimed at effective ICT use.(16)

Issues and Discussion

Digital culture and digital literacy: Computer technologies and other aspects of digital culture have changed the ways people live, work, play, and learn, impacting the construction and distribution of knowledge and power around the world.(14) Graduates who are less familiar with digital culture are increasingly at a disadvantage in the national and global economy. Digital literacy—the skills of searching for, discerning, and producing information, as well as the critical use of new media for full participation in society—has thus become an important consideration for curriculum frameworks.(8)

In many countries, digital literacy is being built through the incorporation of information and communication technology (ICT) into schools. Some common educational applications of ICT include:

• One laptop per child: Less expensive laptops have been designed for use in school on a 1:1 basis with features like lower power consumption, a low cost operating system, and special re-programming and mesh network functions.(42) Despite efforts to reduce costs, however, providing one laptop per child may be too costly for some developing countries.(41)
• Tablets: Tablets are small personal computers with a touch screen, allowing input without a keyboard or mouse. Inexpensive learning software (“apps”) can be downloaded onto tablets, making them a versatile tool for learning.(7)(25) The most effective apps develop higher order thinking skills and provide creative and individualized options for students to express their understandings.(18)
• Interactive White Boards or Smart Boards : Interactive white boards allow projected computer images to be displayed, manipulated, dragged, clicked, or copied.(3) Simultaneously, handwritten notes can be taken on the board and saved for later use. Interactive white boards are associated with whole-class instruction rather than student-centred activities.(38) Student engagement is generally higher when ICT is available for student use throughout the classroom.(4)
• E-readers : E-readers are electronic devices that can hold hundreds of books in digital form, and they are increasingly utilized in the delivery of reading material.(19) Students—both skilled readers and reluctant readers—have had positive responses to the use of e-readers for independent reading.(22) Features of e-readers that can contribute to positive use include their portability and long battery life, response to text, and the ability to define unknown words.(22) Additionally, many classic book titles are available for free in e-book form.
• Flipped Classrooms: The flipped classroom model, involving lecture and practice at home via computer-guided instruction and interactive learning activities in class, can allow for an expanded curriculum. There is little investigation on the student learning outcomes of flipped classrooms.(5) Student perceptions about flipped classrooms are mixed, but generally positive, as they prefer the cooperative learning activities in class over lecture.(5)(35)

ICT and Teacher Professional Development: Teachers need specific professional development opportunities in order to increase their ability to use ICT for formative learning assessments, individualized instruction, accessing online resources, and for fostering student interaction and collaboration.(15) Such training in ICT should positively impact teachers’ general attitudes towards ICT in the classroom, but it should also provide specific guidance on ICT teaching and learning within each discipline. Without this support, teachers tend to use ICT for skill-based applications, limiting student academic thinking.(32) To sup­port teachers as they change their teaching, it is also essential for education managers, supervisors, teacher educators, and decision makers to be trained in ICT use.(11)

Ensuring benefits of ICT investments: To ensure the investments made in ICT benefit students, additional conditions must be met. School policies need to provide schools with the minimum acceptable infrastructure for ICT, including stable and affordable internet connectivity and security measures such as filters and site blockers. Teacher policies need to target basic ICT literacy skills, ICT use in pedagogical settings, and discipline-specific uses. (21) Successful imple­mentation of ICT requires integration of ICT in the curriculum. Finally, digital content needs to be developed in local languages and reflect local culture. (40) Ongoing technical, human, and organizational supports on all of these issues are needed to ensure access and effective use of ICT. (21)

Resource Constrained Contexts: The total cost of ICT ownership is considerable: training of teachers and administrators, connectivity, technical support, and software, amongst others. (42) When bringing ICT into classrooms, policies should use an incremental pathway, establishing infrastructure and bringing in sustainable and easily upgradable ICT. (16) Schools in some countries have begun allowing students to bring their own mobile technology (such as laptop, tablet, or smartphone) into class rather than providing such tools to all students—an approach called Bring Your Own Device. (1)(27)(34) However, not all families can afford devices or service plans for their children. (30) Schools must ensure all students have equitable access to ICT devices for learning.

Inclusiveness Considerations

Digital Divide: The digital divide refers to disparities of digital media and internet access both within and across countries, as well as the gap between people with and without the digital literacy and skills to utilize media and internet.(23)(26)(31) The digital divide both creates and reinforces socio-economic inequalities of the world’s poorest people. Policies need to intentionally bridge this divide to bring media, internet, and digital literacy to all students, not just those who are easiest to reach.

Minority language groups: Students whose mother tongue is different from the official language of instruction are less likely to have computers and internet connections at home than students from the majority. There is also less material available to them online in their own language, putting them at a disadvantage in comparison to their majority peers who gather information, prepare talks and papers, and communicate more using ICT. (39) Yet ICT tools can also help improve the skills of minority language students—especially in learning the official language of instruction—through features such as automatic speech recognition, the availability of authentic audio-visual materials, and chat functions. (2)(17)

Students with different styles of learning: ICT can provide diverse options for taking in and processing information, making sense of ideas, and expressing learning. Over 87% of students learn best through visual and tactile modalities, and ICT can help these students ‘experience’ the information instead of just reading and hearing it. (20)(37) Mobile devices can also offer programmes (“apps”) that provide extra support to students with special needs, with features such as simplified screens and instructions, consistent placement of menus and control features, graphics combined with text, audio feedback, ability to set pace and level of difficulty, appropriate and unambiguous feedback, and easy error correction. (24)(29)

Can AI transform education?

I remember the day I first experienced artificial intelligence  (AI) in education. It was the late ’90s, and I was a maths teacher at a school in London described as having “challenging circumstances.”

I looked at my students, eyes glued to their computer screens, ears covered by headphones, all working in silence using an adaptive maths program. While marvelling at the rare moment of tranquillity, I also wondered: If the students were learning from the technology, what was the point of me being there? After all, I was a teacher, and a rather good one (if I do say so myself!).

Using the student learning outcomes data generated by the educational technology (edtech) program, I split the class into two groups based on their competencies: I taught half of them, while the others worked quietly on their computers, and then we switched. I kept using the data generated by the program to inform my teaching, and over time the students’ results improved. Technology in service of the teacher and the students contributed to our maths results being a top 2% value-add in England!

Fast-forward to today: Generative AI technology is mind-blowing, with great potential to be harnessed for teaching and learning. In a world where seven out of 10 children born in a low- and middle-income countries cannot read by age 10 , AI could help address the dramatic learning equity gaps. But this work needs careful thought.

I have experienced many edtech pitches over the years, but only a few have impressed me. Most are either too focused on the technology or on reaching large numbers of students, without considering the pedagogy, or they fail to address the challenges and barriers that underserved students face in accessing and using technology, particularly in low- and middle-income contexts.

Furthermore, it is all too rare to see any evidence of impact on learning outcomes. (If you don’t show impact, I will assume there is none!)

A few edtech solutions combine evidence and the best of human expertise and wisdom with the benefits that technology can afford, particularly in data analysis. And with the recent advances in AI, especially in natural language processing, speech recognition, and computer vision, I have seen pitches that have blown me away—they genuinely make me wish I were teaching again.

Here are three problems that students and teachers across the globe face, along with AI-based solutions that could help, if they are implemented with careful thought, informed by data, and focused on equity :

For a glossary of technical terms. See below .

Problem 1: Many students don’t have access to high-quality learning resources that are tailored to their needs, interests, and learning levels.

Students may struggle to learn from their starting point and at their own pace, receive timely and constructive feedback, or struggle to find motivation and support for their learning goals. If they fall behind, they are likely to stay behind and drop out, failing to acquire important life skills.

• Personalized adaptive learning solutions adjust the difficulty, content, and presentation of learning activities based on the student’s performance, preferences, and progress. These platforms have been shown to improve learning outcomes, especially among low-performing students in sub-Saharan Africa  and South Asia. Existing products include Mindspark in India , onebillion in Malawi, and EIDU in Kenya .
• AI tutors offer one-on-one instruction and guidance for students, using natural language processing and dialogue systems to simulate human interactions. These tutors have been shown to increase student engagement, confidence, and achievement. Rori in Ghana and Khanmigo in the U.S.  are already assisting students in this manner.

These tools need to be able to assess students’ current learning levels and chart the most effective and efficient learning trajectory; ensure that the content aligns with the national curriculum and is relevant and engaging; and, importantly, be sensitive to bias. The issue of how children’s data is gathered and used, and what can be diagnosed from it, requires serious consideration and established guidelines.

Watch: Bill Gates and Tonee Ndungu discuss AI education in Africa

Problem 2: some teachers may not have the training, knowledge, and experience they need to be effective in their roles..

Up to 40% of teachers in sub-Saharan Africa cannot demonstrate proficiency in the subjects they teach. Teachers may also face challenges such as large class sizes, diverse student needs, high curriculum demands, and administrative responsibilities. They may also lack opportunities for professional development, feedback, and collaboration or may lack the confidence to try out new methodologies in the classroom.

• AI-enabled teacher coaches can help teachers develop and practice their skills in a simulated environment, using natural language processing and computer vision to create realistic scenarios and characters and get feedback. These coaches have been shown to enhance teacher self-efficacy, competence, and performance in high-income countries. Some models use speech recognition software so teachers can record their lessons and get feedback. TeachFX and Loquat Learning are products to watch.
• AI lesson-planning support programs can help teachers create and customize high-quality learning resources, using natural language processing and semantic analysis to match the resources with curriculum, standards, and student needs. These tools have been shown to save teachers time, increase student engagement, and improve learning outcomes in countries including Kenya and India. Programs in use include Teacher.AI in Sierra Leone, EIDU in Kenya, TeleTaleem in Pakistan and Oak National Academy in the UK .
• AI assistants can help teachers automate and streamline administrative tasks such as grading, recording attendance, and reporting, using natural language processing, optical character recognition, and machine learning to process and analyze student work and data. These assistants have been shown to reduce teacher workload, provide instant feedback, and monitor student progress. ConveGenius and Smart Paper in India are both being implemented on a broad scale.

Teachers will only use AI-based tools that help solve problems and make their lives easier, so the tools must be user friendly, relevant, and lead to impact. As with student-facing tools, teacher-facing tools must be accurate, engaging, and unbiased, and they must take into account the evidence on how adults, and teachers in particular, learn and apply that learning in the classroom.

Problem 3: It is expensive and time consuming to develop high-quality educational content, as well as assessment and evaluation tools, in multiple local languages and contexts.

It is often expensive for governments to produce teaching and learning resources such as student textbooks and lesson plans in multiple local languages. Governments and educational systems may also lack the data and insights to make informed decisions and policies for improving educational outcomes and equity. Technology can generate good first drafts for experts to review.

• AI translators can translate educational content into many local languages, using natural language processing and machine translation to produce accurate and fluent translations. These translators can increase access, equity, and inclusion for learners and educators, and they are being tested in countries including South Africa , India, Mali, and Senegal.
• AI assessors can create, deliver, and score assessments in various formats, such as verbal, handwritten, and multiple choice, using natural language processing, speech recognition, and optical character recognition to evaluate student responses and provide feedback. These assessors have been shown to improve reliability, validity, and efficiency of assessments. Automated assessment platforms in use include Wadhwani in India and EGRA-AI in South Africa.
• AI evaluators can analyze and optimize educational outcomes using machine learning and data mining to generate insights, recommendations, and predictions based on student data and performance. These evaluators have been shown to enhance student retention, completion, and success in higher education in countries including the United States, Australia, and Japan.

These emerging tools need careful research, development, and testing. They need to have established benchmarks and include quality assurance mechanisms to ensure that translations are accurate and pedagogical principles are followed. Assessments must be accurate and available and cover enough languages, subjects, and age groups. AI-enabled evaluations in the Global South are at a nascent stage, so new tools need to be tested against human evaluators for accuracy and efficiency.

Principles for guiding AI in global education—and beyond

The opportunity to improve educational outcomes through AI is substantial. But we must all keep asking who is and isn’t benefiting from these technological advances. The Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation has established an AI Ethics and Safety Committee that is working alongside our program teams, including Global Education, to address these issues. As the Global Education team  develops strategies and funds solutions that incorporate AI, our team is focusing on the following five principles:

• Equity . AI systems should be designed and implemented with equity and inclusion in mind, ensuring that they do not exacerbate existing inequalities or create new ones.
• Data privacy . AI systems must respect and protect the data privacy and security of students and educators and follow ethical and legal standards and norms.
• Ethics . AI systems for education must adhere to ethical principles and values—such as fairness, justice, dignity, and human rights—in their development and deployment.
• Evidence and accuracy . AI solutions must be evaluated and validated for their quality, and their accuracy and reliability must be assured for different contexts, languages, and domains.
• Impact . AI solutions should be monitored and measured for their impact on educational outcomes, such as learning gains.

Engaging with AI or not is no longer a choice. AI is being used already. The world ignores it at the risk of deepening educational inequities in ways we do not yet understand. So let’s put systems and processes in place to ensure that students from all walks of life can benefit from these innovations.

Let’s also work with teachers to enable their use of this technology so they can get the greatest impact for themselves and their students. We have an opportunity to revisit, on a broad scale, what I did in the ’90s, by asking, “How can I use this technology to serve my students and myself most effectively?” I believe it is the integration of technology into teachers’ work that will have the greatest impact.

The Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation is proud to directly fund the following partners mentioned in this article: Eidu ; Teacher AI ; Kytabu ; and EGRA AI . Additionally, we partner with Central Square Foundation , Fab Inc. , and Co-creation Hub to fund programs and innovations across AI and education.

Computer vision . A computer’s ability to recognize people and objects in pictures, illustrations, and videos the way humans see and understand images.

Dialogue system . A computer system designed to converse with humans.

Generative AI . A computer system designed to produce something new based on “training” provided by large data sets (like text or images).

Machine learning . A computer system’s ability to learn without being explicitly programmed to do so, typically using a data set such as numbers, photos, or text.

Machine translation . A computer system’s ability translate text from one language to another using machine learning.

Natural language processing . A computer’s ability to process and produce language in the way humans do.

Optical character recognition . A computer’s ability to convert images of text into editable text that a machine can read.

Semantic analysis . A computer’s use of context to make sense of words or phrases that have multiple potential meanings, to enhance the accuracy of natural language processing.

Speech recognition . A computer’s ability to recognize speech and process it into writing.

AI equity: Ensuring access to AI for all

The first principles guiding our work with ai, six scientists share the innovations that could transform the future.
