Harnessing the Complexity of Education with Information Technology

Education at all levels is facing several challenges in most countries, such as low quality, high costs, lack of educators, and unsatisfied student demand. Traditional approaches are becoming unable to deliver the required education. Several causes for this inefficiency can be identified. I argue that beyond specific causes, the lack of effective education is related to complexity. However, information technology is helping us overcome this complexity.

College students, professors are making their own AI rules. They don't always agree  | Education 2.0 & 3.0 | Scoop.it

For English professor Dan Cryer, using generative artificial intelligence to write a college essay is like bringing a forklift to the gym.

If all we needed was the weights moved, then that would be great,” says Cryer, who teaches at Johnson County Community College outside Kansas City, Kansas.

But we need the muscles developed, and students going through the process of writing are developing those muscles.”

Cryer says AI has also added a new type of labor for professors like him: trying to determine whether a student’s work is their own. He says that problem is compounded by the fact that his community college, like many other higher education institutions around the U.S., provides students access to AI tools.

The New AI Risk Isn’t What Models Say. It’s What Agents Do

"AI agents are starting to look less like chatbots and more like services. They can coordinate tasks, call tools and make changes in production systems without a human reviewing every step. For large enterprises, that autonomy is both an opportunity and a risk. The question is no longer whether an AI system can generate a good answer. It is whether you can govern what the system does."

[2602.00070] FoundationalASSIST: An Educational Dataset for Foundational Knowledge Tracing and Pedagogical Grounding of LLMs

Can Large Language Models understand how students learn? As LLMs are deployed for adaptive testing and personalized tutoring, this question becomes urgent -- yet we cannot answer it with existing resources. Current educational datasets provide only question identifiers and binary correctness labels, rendering them opaque to LLMs that reason in natural language. We address this gap with FoundationalASSIST, the first English educational dataset providing the complete information needed for research on LLMs in education: full question text, actual student responses (not just right/wrong), records of which wrong answers students chose, and alignment to Common Core K-12 standards. These 1.7 million interactions from 5,000 students enable research directions that were previously impossible to pursue, from fine-tuning student models to analyzing misconception patterns. To demonstrate the dataset's utility, we evaluate four frontier models (GPT-OSS-120B, Llama-3.3-70B, Qwen3-Next-80B variants) on two complementary task families: Knowledge Tracing, testing whether LLMs can predict student performance on questions, and the exact answer a student will give; and \textbf{Pedagogical Grounding}, testing whether LLMs understand the properties that make assessment items effective. Our evaluation reveals significant gaps in current LLM capabilities. Every model barely achieves a trivial baseline on knowledge tracing. All models fall below random chance on item discrimination, indicating that LLMs do not understand what makes one problem more diagnostic than another. Models do show competence at judging relative difficulty (up to 68.6%), but this partial success only highlights the gaps elsewhere. These results establish that substantial advances are needed before LLMs can reliably support personalized learning at scale. We release FoundationalASSIST to support progress on these foundational challenges.

Richard Platt's curator insight, April 3, 12:33 PM
  1. Caring and balanced: AI for human flourishing 
    AI must protect and nurture learners' emotional, social, and cognitive development. AI in the IB ecosystem must work equitably across our global community and support the human relationships central to an IB education. 
  2. Inquiry-driven: AI that deepens learning 
    AI should strengthen inquiry, critical thinking, creativity, and collaborative problem-solving — enabling learners to become active explorers of their own education through the thinking, effort, and growth that define an IB education. 
  3. Educator agency: guided by capability, grounded in responsibility 
    Educators shape how AI is used in learning. This requires professional knowledge, openness to new approaches, school-level governance, and clear accountability for outcomes. 
  4. Safe and transparent: AI that is accountable 
    Every learner's data rights and privacy are non-negotiable. AI must meet strong safeguarding standards, and schools must be able to understand what AI tools do, how they work, and where they fall short. High-stakes decisions require human oversight. 
  5. Continuously adapting: evidence-led, always improving 
    AI must demonstrate pedagogical value through evidence, reflection, and honest evaluation. Both inaction and recklessness fail our learners — responsible adoption means committing to learn and improve as we go. This is mindful innovation

ChatGPT’s impact on student learning outcomes: a meta-analysis of 35 experimental studies

ChatGPT’s impact on student learning outcomes: a meta-analysis of 35 experimental studies | Education 2.0 & 3.0 | Scoop.it

"With the rapid advancement of generative artificial intelligence (GenAI) technology, the potential educational applications of Chat generative pre-trained transformers (ChatGPT) have attracted significant attention. However, the research on the specific effects of ChatGPT on student learning outcomes and its moderating factors remains insufficient. This study aimed to quantify the effects of ChatGPT on student learning outcomes and explore relevant moderating variables using a meta-analysis approach."

The Rise Of AI Policy Firewalls: Why Every AI Agent Will Need A Guardrail Layer

"Artificial intelligence (AI) is quickly moving beyond chatbots and copilots. A new generation of AI agents is beginning to perform real actions. These agents can access APIs, move money, retrieve data, write code, interact with customers and even coordinate other agents.

 

That shift raises a simple but critical question: Who is watching what the agent actually does?"

EDTECH@UTRGV's curator insight, April 1, 1:58 PM

"A policy firewall sits between the AI agent and the systems it wants to interact with. It acts as a checkpoint that intercepts and evaluates every action before it happens."

AI could undermine meaningful learning unless feedback stays rooted in connection, study recommends

"The rise of generative AI in higher education is reshaping how feedback is delivered, but meaningful learning could be undermined if its use is not carefully guided by principles of care, trust and connection, according to new research led by the University of Surrey. Published in Assessment & Evaluation in Higher Education, the paper explores how generative AI technologies, including chatbots such as ChatGPT, are transforming feedback for students—highlighting both the opportunities and risks of AI in education."


Via EDTECH@UTRGV
EDTECH@UTRGV's curator insight, April 1, 2:03 PM

"While AI can generate responses at speed and scale, researchers argue it cannot fully replicate the judgment and relationships that make feedback effective. Instead, they call for a "care-full" approach—one that treats feedback not as a set of comments, but as an ongoing process of dialogue, reflection and growth. Without this, they warn, it risks reducing feedback to a transactional exercise rather than a meaningful part of learning."
