Understanding the role of Artificial Intelligence in teaching and learning

As co-chair of the AI, Digital Learning and Digital Transformation working group of the SDG4 Youth and Student Network (sponsored by UNESCO), I aim to understand the challenges and opportunities that AI brings to learning through advocacy and policy. My research perspectives in AI prioritize implicit and value-based qualitative approaches. For youth education, I create informative online content on the appropriate usage of AI for learning. I also particularly advocate for a more present youth voice in formal decision-making in AI for education.
