https://www.nu.edu/In this episode of EdTech Elevated, Lisa March speaks with Dr. Federica Fornaciari, Academic Program Director at National University, about the ethical implications of AI in education. Dr. Fornaciari explains how AI tools not only solve problems but often redefine them, shifting the focus from critical thinking and creativity to engagement metrics and measurable outcomes. She highlights the importance of ethical AI development, urging creators to anticipate unintended consequences, address bias, and design systems that prioritize student privacy, autonomy, and equitable access.
The conversation explores the risks of commodifying student data and the need for transparency and accountability in EdTech. Dr. Fornaciari emphasizes that AI-powered educational platforms should inspire curiosity and deeper learning rather than simply maximize engagement. She encourages EdTech developers to collaborate with educators, ethicists, and policymakers from the outset to ensure technology supports meaningful learning experiences.
