AI and EdTech

Artificial Intelligence (AI)

AI is trans­form­ing teach­ing and learn­ing, offer­ing new pos­si­bil­i­ties while rais­ing con­cerns about pri­va­cy, bias, and its role in edu­ca­tion. NIC’s AI prin­ci­ples pro­vide a frame­work for eth­i­cal, effec­tive use and are reg­u­lar­ly updat­ed to reflect best prac­tices and evolv­ing reg­u­la­tions.

Guid­ing Prin­ci­ples
This page out­lines how AI can be inte­grat­ed into teach­ing and learn­ing at NIC while bal­anc­ing inno­va­tion with human judg­ment and address­ing con­sid­er­a­tions such as pri­va­cy, bias, and respon­si­ble use.
