Supporting teachers and pupils through a smart signal
from 01/01/2023 until 01/01/2025
Smartschool aims to develop a signaling function utilizing AI that can alert to potential learning issues using available data on their platform. The application is intended to serve as a tool for teachers who wish to monitor their students despite their demanding schedules. The project is being conducted in collaboration with students, parents, and education professionals. Through partnerships with the Hasselt University and GO!, there is a focus on ethical considerations and practical usage of the application among teachers. Additionally, Cegeka contributes its expertise in the field of AI to the project.
Aim
The development of the AI-functionality aims to support teachers and should result in the early detection of potential learning issues and less drop out of pupils. By taking a Citizen Science perspective we try to bridge the gap between science, developers and education and let teachers, pupils and other education actors (who are ultimately at the heart of the education processes that are being automized) participate in the development process.
