Current PhD project
The usage of AI in education (AIED) can raise concerns such as the responsibility and accountability for decisions made by AIED systems, impact of potential discrimination by AIED systems through historical biases, lack of explainability, privacy of student data, etc. Despite this, there has been little attention paid to ethics of AIED in literature and there is only one existing framework to ethically guide the development and usage of AIED. AIED ethics is complex as it has to combine both general AI ethics and the ethics of educational technology. Our research aims to develop ethical framework for AIED.
