The World Bank and EdTech Hub’s Community of Interest brings global practitioners together to explore AI in education. Monthly conversations highlight insights, challenges, and opportunities in AI content, curation, and teacher roles, with experts sharing reflections on how collaboration and equity can shape AI’s transformative role in learning.
What if the tech you need to improve learning outcomes is already in your school? That’s the question we were asked through the ASEAN-UK SAGE Helpdesk, and it sparked an important conversation across Southeast Asia and beyond. In this blog, we break down our findings from a new guidance note designed to help school systems and decision-makers repurpose and plan…
Signals of the week: Micro-interventions, AI readiness in higher ed, and rethinking grades Each week, we spotlight signals of change in AI and education – and consider what they might mean for the future of learning in low- and middle-income countries. Using the Three Horizons framework, we track what’s beginning to upgrade existing systems, what may soon disrupt the status…

Signals of the week: Enabling PPPs, learner repercussions, and “digital belonging” Each week, we spotlight signals of change in AI and education – and consider what they might mean for the future of learning in low- and middle-income countries. Using the Three Horizons framework, we track what’s beginning to upgrade existing systems, what may soon disrupt the status quo, and…
This blog discusses the conversation from a Community of Interest (COI) event on Artificial Intelligence in Education, a collaboration by the World Bank and EdTech Hub. The emergence of Generative AI is challenging traditional approaches to the development of teaching and learning materials in education systems around the world. AI-powered tools are transforming traditional models of curriculum design and assessment,…
Signals of the week: Homegrown tools, shared metrics, and rethinking quality Each week, we spotlight signals of change in AI and education – and consider what they might mean for the future of learning in the Global South. Using the Three Horizons framework, we track what’s beginning to upgrade existing systems, what may soon disrupt the status quo, and what…
The Challenge How children learn, and how teachers teach, might look very different in 10 years time. We believe that two megadrivers of change have the potential for transformative impact on education systems in low- and middle-income countries (LMICs). One is artificial intelligence (AI). According to one study by the World Bank, the top 40 generative AI tools attract 3…
Each week, we sift through the noise to spotlight early signals of change in AI and education. We track what’s happening now—and what it could mean for the future of learning in the Global South. Through this, we hope you can anticipate where change might be headed, and help steer it toward equitable learning outcomes in the age of AI.…
