Using generative AI tools in education

With the emergence of ChatGPT, there has been a lively discussion about the use of generative AI tools in education. To support teachers in using this technology, the Dutch AI Coalition's Scholing & Education working group has compiled two advisory documents.

The working group thoroughly studied various sources, including academic literature, recommendations from educational institutions and relevant blogs, to prepare the documents. The advice documents are divided into four main categories: fraud prevention and detection, alternative assessment methods, integration in education, and constraints and ethical concerns.

The advisory documents offer teachers within different education levels insight into the opportunities and challenges of generative AI tools in education. By following the advice, teachers can make an informed decision on whether or not to deploy this technology in their learning environment.
