    Bridging the technological gap is essential to equip students for the AI future 🔮 The release of our GoStudent Future of Education Report 2024 last week highlighted alarming figures about the access to AI in education across Europe: 🔍 Unveiling Europe's AI gap: In an era driven by technological advancement, children are eagerly forward to the future, with 54% expressing a desire to learn with AI. However, the reality is far from this, with just 24% having access to AI in their classrooms. This widening digital gap between what children aspire to learn and what schools are equipped to provide is a pressing concern. Despite the evident demand for AI integration in education, only a fraction of students in Europe have access to AI learning tools, leaving many feeling unprepared for the evolving job market. 💡 Embracing tech-centric learning: Last year our report revealed that 44% of children believed AI would enhance education by 2050. This year, over half (54%) express a firm desire to start learning with AI now. This rapid transformation underscores the urgency for educational players to adapt and embrace emerging technologies. And it's not just about AI; it's about embracing a tech-centric lifestyle. Children’s confidence about living in a world surrounded by new technologies has risen by 20% over the past 12 months, reaching a staggering 77% in 2024. Students understand the importance of digital literacy along their learning journey to help navigate the challenges of their future. Based on our data, it is clear we must bridge the digital gap and ensure all students have equitable access to technology-rich learning environments. By empowering educators with the tools they need, we can pave the way for a more inclusive and future-ready education system. 🔗 Read more about the GoStudent Future of Education Report 2024 below or on gostudent.org #AIinEducation #FutureOfEducation #AILearning #GoStudentFutureOfEducationReport

    🌟👩🏫 Empowering girls through education: Investing in their future 👩🎓🚀 This International Women’s Day, let’s sharpen our focus on equipping girls with the tools they need to conquer the challenges of tomorrow. This year’s UNESCO theme “Invest in women: accelerate progress” and “Inspire inclusion” resonates deeply, highlighting the transformative power of education in shaping the future. 📊 Data from our GoStudent Future of Education Report 2024 sheds light on the urgent need for change: - Only 62% of girls in Europe feel adequately prepared with the skills necessary for their dream careers - What's on their educational wishlist? Life skills (51%), technology development (46%), mental health management (46%), and sustainability and climate education (46%) - And soft skills are equally crucial: problem-solving (58%), creativity (55%), and curiosity (50%) are essential traits for future success. Despite the existing curriculum gaps, girls show remarkable confidence: - 74% believe technology empowers them to learn anything they want - 69% think they have the means to succeed. But teachers, parents and educational companies have a pivotal role to play: - 73% of girls consider they have role models around them - Yet, 69% seek more guidance in choosing the right direction for their future. At GoStudent, we believe that tailoring education to individual aspirations will help pave the way for a generation of empowered women to seize their dream roles. Happy International Women’s Day! 🎉👩🎓 #IWD2024 #EmpowerGirls #InvestInEducation #GoSudentFutureofEducationReport

    📣 Big news incoming! Today we release our GoStudent Future of Education Report 2024! 📣 We have surveyed 5,581 parents and their children, as well as 60 teachers across Austria, Germany, the United Kingdom, France, Spain & Italy to uncover their unique view of emerging educational trends, and shed light on the wants and needs of Gen Z and Alpha students.📚 Want to discover what the next Gen needs to feel future-ready?🔮 Take a look at some of the key stats our study has revealed: 🤖 Technology Development is the top topic that students in Europe want to learn to feel future-ready. 43% of students also consider learning about AI to be critical for their future - ranked equally with sustainability. This marks a significant shift in priorities within just a year, highlighting the growing recognition of AI's importance, alongside addressing global challenges like climate change. 👩🏻💻 56% of children in Europe believe their future job will be tech-related, yet when it comes to educating them in the field, schools struggle to keep pace. Despite children’s growing confidence in navigating a tech-centric world, a digital gap persists, with 35% of students in Europe feeling unprepared to achieve their dream job. 🖥 Over 9 in 10 teachers acknowledge the effectiveness of digital tools to learn, but only half of them regularly use them, due to limited access to technology at school. Bridging this gap appears to be crucial to improve teaching methods and prepare students for the evolving job market. 🔁 2 in 3 parents believe a mixed approach, combining online and in-person guidance, gives their children greater accessibility to learning opportunities. This proves that an innovative learning mix could support each student individually to prepare for their own future. At GoStudent, this report - conducted in partnership with Edelman DXI - confirms our belief that the future of education is a blend of technology and personalised guidance, enabling every student to unlock their full potential. From personalised 1-1 tutoring to self-guided study enabled by GoStudent Learning, our AI-driven content platform, or learning a language via an avatar in GoStudent VR’s virtual world - we are proud to be ahead of the curve, developing accessible tools that equip students throughout their learning journey! 🚀 🤔 Feeling surprised, or fully agree with these insights? Comment below about your vision and where you stand on the path of shaping the future of education!

    Kickstarting 2024 with promising developments in AI regulation! The recent strides in AI regulation, highlighted by the European Commission's AI Act, present a monumental opportunity for the education sector. This landmark agreement not only sets forth essential safeguards, but also paves the way for innovative advancements in educational technology. Here's why at #GoStudent we're thrilled about the prospect: 1️⃣ Safe, transparent, and human-centred AI: The #AIAct emphasises the importance of safe, transparent, and human-centred AI technologies. For educational players, this means an opportunity to develop tools that prioritise the well-being and empowerment of students, ensuring they have access to transformative AI tools in an ethical and responsible manner. 2️⃣ Innovative educational tools: With the regulatory framework in place, educational players can now push the boundaries of innovation. From adaptive learning apps to AI-powered virtual tutors, the possibilities are endless. These tools have the potential to revolutionise learning, offering personalised experiences tailored to each student's needs and abilities. 3️⃣ Accessibility for all: Echoing Bill Gates' recent comments on LinkedIn, we believe that every student should have access to tools that improve learning, including AI. It's imperative to ensure that these tools are accessible in schools but also at home, bridging the gap between classroom and remote learning environments. 4️⃣ Equity in education: AI holds the key to democratising and personalising learning for all students, particularly those from underserved communities. By leveraging AI in equitable ways, we can lower barriers to education. 5️⃣ Collaborative efforts: To fully harness the power of AI in education, collaboration is key. By bringing together educators, policymakers, and edtech companies, we can shape the future of education in a way that benefits all learners. 🚀 At GoStudent, we're not just envisioning the future – we're already leading the charge by empowering both students and tutors. Our AI lesson plan generator enables tutors to swiftly prepare tailored lessons, freeing up valuable time to focus entirely on their students. We’ve also just launched a new platform that offers adaptive exercises to students accessible anytime, anywhere. The rapid advancements in AI this last year demonstrate this tech is here to stay and can be adopted at speed. This is our chance to shape a better future for students, and reimagine education. Starting right now! #AIinEducation #FutureOfEducation #AdaptiveLearning #EdTech
