Did you know West Partnership has produced a Scoping Review on using AI in Education? Check this out below.

It gives you information on using AI to develop curriculum, learning, teaching and assessment, teacher workload and the challenges and risks posed by AI.

Whenever you are using this technology, you must always consider the ethical issues around this.

West Partnership have also produced a podcast on this. You can listen to Episode 5 here: https://www.westpartnership.co.uk/west-os/westcast-podcast/
