AI Intelligence
Bring knowledge, creativity and human judgment to AI. Inquire, verify, improve and take responsibility.
Our vision / Education for human growthLet education grow
Let education grow
with its people.
We share a question: how can AI and educational innovation help people understand more deeply, act with judgment and grow together?
A shared directionWhat is education for
What is education for
in the AI era?
Our purpose is education for human growth.
Educational drift occurs when effort, competition, workload and measurable performance keep increasing while a shared understanding of education’s purpose becomes less clear. AI makes the need for a thoughtful response more urgent.
IAAIE is a founding initiative connecting academic research, school practice and educational AI innovation. We invite educators, researchers, learners, families, schools and community partners to connect shared educational aims with everyday practice.
We seek to help people develop knowledge and capability, exercise judgment, build meaningful relationships and take responsibility for a sustainable common future.
The 3 + 4 modelThree capacities.
Three capacities.
Four dimensions of growth.
Three mutually reinforcing capacities describe what education should cultivate. Four dimensions describe how they develop together.
Hands-on Intelligence
Investigate real questions. Make, test and revise ideas through practical constraints and feedback.
Social Intelligence
Listen, build relationships, learn across differences and contribute with shared responsibility.
Drive
Initiative and persistence to pursue worthwhile questions, including when the way forward is uncertain.
Creation
Connect ideas, explore alternatives, design, make and revise work that contributes something meaningful.
Bond
Build trust, reciprocity and shared responsibility through which learning and growth become possible.
Compass
Use values and judgment to consider purpose, evidence, consequences and responsibility to others.
Anchored learningStrong foundations.
Strong foundations.
Room to explore.
A stable core and flexible inquiry belong within the same learning experience. Human responsibility remains active throughout.
What keeps learning grounded.
Foundational knowledge, ethical boundaries, disciplined verification, human judgment and responsibility.
What opens new possibilities.
Inquiry, adaptation, exploration, creativity and the ability to apply learning in unfamiliar settings.
Make learning visible through process, explanation and transfer: the question, the evidence, the learner’s reasoning and what changes after feedback.
School 2.0 / A learning communityLearning together.
Learning together.
Contributing with purpose.
A Community of Meaning connects personal growth with belonging, contribution and a shared public future.
Connection
Link learning with real people, problems, communities and feedback. Make opportunities accessible across backgrounds.
Governance
Set clear expectations for transparency, fairness and responsible AI use. Keep people accountable for consequential decisions.
Credentialing
Make learning credible through evidence of inquiry, revision, collaboration and judgment within a clearly understood scope.
The framework draws on AI Era: Redefining Teaching and Learning by Paul Pu and Jim Slotta. Paul Pu’s doctoral research informs the emphasis on structured inquiry, human judgment and visible evidence of learning. These ideas guide shared inquiry; future IAAIE programme and recognition arrangements remain in development.
Our commitmentTechnology should serve
Technology should serve
human dignity.
Curiosity, empathy, independent judgment and responsibility belong at the centre of educational change.
Our declaration advocates age-appropriate AI boundaries, teachers’ professional judgment, careful data use and human review of important decisions. It draws on Education for Sustainable Development and Global Citizenship Education.
