Our research agenda informs current research priorities and guides the field overall. Committed to high-impact research that informs education leaders on leveraging genAI for student learning, the agenda focuses on four key areas to understand and impact genAI in K-12 education:
Discovery
AI is unlocking possibilities in schools that were previously unimaginable. How can we leverage what we already know from education research to harness these new tools? By exploring what’s now achievable, we aim to expand the boundaries of learning, engagement, and equity.
Landscape Mapping
Who is using AI in schools and how are they implementing it? Our research maps the current adoption of AI tools, uncovering success stories and revealing gaps in access and implementation. This work provides a comprehensive view of the evolving AI education landscape.
Impact
What are the real-world effects of AI on students, teachers, and schools? From learning outcomes to mental health and equity, we measure how these tools are transforming education. Our goal is to provide evidence-based insights to maximize benefits and mitigate risks.
Enabling Conditions
What makes the successful integration of AI in schools possible? We investigate the policies and district-level conditions that facilitate—or hinder—effective adoption. Our findings offer actionable guidance for leaders aiming to implement generative AI responsibly and effectively.
