Generative Artificial Intelligence Hackathons Research Project

As the fast-moving technological innovations of generative AI become more widespread, the Department needs to learn with and from the education sector in order to provide support on how to best use these technologies, maximising opportunity, and minimising risk. To do this, we intend to commission a project to understand possible use cases for generative AI in education. This will allow the Department to build a robust evidence base to inform future policy relating to generative AI, and to further explore the opportunities this technology presents to reduce teacher workload, improve outcomes, and run operations more efficiently.
