Education
Personalised learning and tailored teaching
AI can help educators move from a “one‑size‑fits‑all” model to more individualised learning. By analysing students’ performance over time, preferred learning styles, and specific knowledge gaps, AI systems can suggest which content, format, and pace are most suitable for each learner.
For example, adaptive learning platforms adjust the difficulty of tasks in real time. When a student answers correctly several times in a row, the system can introduce more advanced exercises. If the student struggles, it can offer hints, simpler questions, or alternative explanations. AI‑driven tutors can also provide immediate feedback, explain why an answer is incorrect, and recommend what to practise next.
The result is that students receive support at exactly the right level: strong students are challenged, while those who need more time get targeted reinforcement. This can lead to better learning outcomes, higher motivation, and a reduced risk that learners fall behind without being noticed.
Automation of administrative tasks
A significant part of teachers’ and school administrators’ time is spent on tasks that are important but not directly related to teaching. AI can relieve some of this burden by automating routine work and making information easier to manage.
Typical examples include automatic grading of multiple‑choice tests, preliminary assessment of short answers, or systems that generate attendance reports and schedules based on predefined rules. Chatbots can answer frequently asked questions from students and guardians about timetables, homework, school policies, or practical information, without requiring manual responses every time.
When these processes are supported by AI, staff gain more time and energy for pedagogical planning, classroom interaction, and individual support. At the same time, the quality of documentation and reporting can increase, as data is captured in a more structured and consistent way.
Accessibility and inclusion
AI‑based tools can make education more accessible and inclusive, so that more learners can participate on equal terms – regardless of functional ability, language background, or where they live.
For instance, speech‑to‑text solutions can transcribe spoken language into written text in real time, which supports students with hearing impairments or reading difficulties. Text‑to‑speech functions can read out digital material, helping those who benefit from listening rather than reading. Translation tools can assist in multilingual classrooms by providing quick translations of instructions and key concepts, and by supporting communication with guardians who speak other languages.
These technologies lower barriers to learning and participation. When support functions are integrated into everyday tools and platforms, they benefit not only students with formal support needs, but also others who learn better through varied formats. Over time, this contributes to a more equitable education system where more learners can reach their full potential.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
Open source technologies give educational institutions greater flexibility, transparency and control over their digital environments. They can support interoperability, reduce dependence on individual vendors and make it easier to adapt technology to changing educational needs.
AI can support educators with administrative tasks, learning analytics and personalised learning resources. It can also help students access information and receive additional support. Responsible use requires clear guidelines, data protection and human oversight.
Digital competence is essential for making effective use of technology in education. Schools and universities can support teachers and staff through continuous training, practical guidance and access to user-friendly digital tools.
A clear digital strategy, combined with ongoing support, helps educational institutions introduce new technologies, improve teaching methods and build confidence in everyday digital workflows.
Protecting student data requires secure infrastructure, appropriate access controls and clear policies for handling personal information.
Educational institutions must comply with applicable data protection regulations, including GDPR. Identity and access management, encryption and secure integrations help protect sensitive information and ensure that students, teachers and administrators have access only to the data they need.
Responsible use of AI and other digital technologies also requires transparency, ethical guidelines and appropriate human oversight.
