TABLE5: Understanding and Addressing AI Bias in Education

Artificial Intelligence has quickly become a powerful tool in education—streamlining tasks, analyzing data, and personalizing learning. But with great power comes great responsibility. Behind the sleek interfaces and algorithmic recommendations lies a complex reality: AI systems can reflect and even amplify the biases of the data and people who create them. In this thought-provoking and interactive session, participants will unpack how bias can sneak into AI tools—often unnoticed—and explore the real implications this has on educational equity. Through storytelling, case studies, and hands-on exploration, we’ll examine where bias originates, how it manifests in commonly used educational platforms, and what educators and leaders can do to identify and mitigate these challenges. This isn’t about fear—it’s about awareness, action, and empowering educators to lead AI integration responsibly and equitably.
