Summary
Machine-generated summaryThe Ministry of Education and Culture is procuring a study accompanying its language model pilot in basic education, running between autumn 2026 and autumn 2027. A small group of education providers will test the Sikt AI solution in basic education. The provider of the study will collect data throughout the pilot using teacher and pupil surveys, interviews and classroom observation, focus group discussions in teachers' collaborative development workshops, and consultations with teachers, pupils and education providers. The study focuses on pedagogical suitability, skills needs and user experience of teachers and pupils, and how use supports teaching goals and AI literacy. The final report will examine benefits and drawbacks of wider piloting of an AI language model solution in Finnish basic education, its estimated impacts on teaching, learning situations and teaching materials, and teachers' skill development needs.
