AI in Education: Towards Developing International Standards

In conjunction with the 15th International Learning Analytics & Knowledge Conference (LAK2025)

Conference Website: https://www.solaresearch.org/events/lak/lak25/

A half-day symposium designed to foster discussions and collaboration on an AI in Education standards development initiative. We warmly invite your participation and contributions to the standard scoping and development working group. Our goal is to develop and publish a white paper informed by the outcomes of the symposium.

This workshop/symposium seeks to explore the need for international industry standards in AI in education, to understand the requirements and scope for any such standards, identify key stakeholders and consider the process by which standards might be collaboratively created and agreed. The workshop  will consist of a series of short talks and discussion,  initially establishing the current needs and expectations of Higher Education Institutions in relation to AI tools; then discussing the enterprise opportunities offered by use of AI in education and finally, by considering how and what kind of industry standards might be created to respond to the needs in the education sector. The aim of this event is to work to establish a network of professionals who can work collaboratively together in the development and realization of international industry standards in AI in education.
