Three takeaways from the presentation:
1. Intelligence is now for “free”. Critical thinking is not.

2. Technology exists to safeguard academic integrity.

3. Assessment methods will be altered and refined.

We're soon back with a new episode together with Dr Nick Jackson❗️

Last time, Dr Nick, Niklas, and John discussed "AI’s impact on education and the role of an educator" (link to the conversation in the comments).

This time, the discussion circled around "How to address and “tackle” AI in education?"

A lot was discussed and here are some subtopics that were raised:

💡 Teachers need an entrepreneurial mindset

💡 What tools should or do we need to use? What are the pillars?

💡 What do we teach teachers?

💡 Would you trust a surgeon or pilot to do anything without their degree?

💡 Are exams and assessments getting more valuable in showing what knowledge you possess?

💡 How many schools are actually talking about AI and ChatGPT?

💡 Who should drive this from a school's perspective?

💡 What can we do to encourage educators and school leaders to get engaged?

Finally, our new Head of Tech Emanuel Unge has started!

Our CEO, Marcus, summarizes it well:

"With Tech Lead xp from Proffsmagasinet and SEB, he is a passionate, hands-on developer that will quickly inject value into our development efforts and lead our dev team into the future.

Having grown up in a family of educators and with a wife who is a teacher + Digiexam user, this was meant to be." 👏

Thank you Dmatch AB for a great collaboration and welcome Emanuel!

In adjunction with SETT (Scandinavian Education Technology Transformation), our CEO Marcus shares our viewpoint in IT-PEDAGOGEN on how to work with and remedy the latest AI technologies and their impact in education. Article in 🇸🇪

+20 universities in the UK came together to discuss their experiences around Digital Exams and to learn from each other.

Together with The London School of Economics and Political Science (LSE) and Birmingham City University, we hosted a full-day event in London that focused on sharing experiences and thoughts about digital exams.

Some key takeaways from the day include the importance of:
- Having a strategy is essential for implementing and succeeding with digital exams
- Start small and scale up
- Learn from other universities and share experiences, there are different approaches and scenarios
- Tryout a few vendors to find the best match before buying or procuring
- Training staff and students is key to success - build confidence and usage will come
- Gather feedback from users (staff and students) to continuously improve the process

Check out the video below to hear more from John, Tom, Maggie, and Pelle and their thoughts on the event.
