Best Use of AI in Education

Artificial Intelligence (AI) models, such as large language models (LLMs), are transforming how we interact with computers. During this weekend’s hackathon, we want you to apply AI towards improving education to produce tools that support the quality, accessibility, and equitability of learning in today’s classrooms. You can use AI to address any challenge teachers and students face, such as curriculum planning, question selection, teacher training, content generation, personalized feedback, automated grading and more.

For this challenge, we encourage you to draw on your own educational experiences and propose technical solutions to problems you’ve regularly encountered as students — after all, you are the best to know where our education system needs improvement. Design impactful and effective AI tools for education for a chance to win a TickTime Pomodoro Timer!

To give you some inspiration, we’re sharing some educational and technical resources:

• This list of the most pressing issues educational leaders have around AI
  
• An introduction to the emerging field of Learning Engineering
  
• A map of AI in education
  
• A recent competition series using LLMs for automated essay evaluation
