Equity stage key note speeches

KEY NOTE: Generation AI: from AI Literacy to AI Agency Friday 26.1. 12:15 – 12:25 pm.

teachers with the necessary insights and pedagogies for curricular transformation.

KEY NOTE: Towards resilient schools: The effect of COVID-19 pandemic on education sector Saturday 27.1. 13:00 – 13:45 pm

Marja-Kristiina Lerkkanen, Professor, Ph.D., University of Jyväskylä.

The COVID-19 pandemic challenged education globally. Because of the pandemic, schools were closed for several weeks or even months, relying on online distance learning, which has decreased learning gains and increased stress levels of students, teachers, principals, and parents. In the future we will need resilient schools which are prepared to navigate crises.
