Framework projects
A single, global network of initiatives to connect and provide leadership in the development of a safer, more equitable and more trusted education ecosystem of AI.
Bringing AI in education initiatives together,
facilitating common understanding, defining frameworks and benchmarks,
building a leadership network,
and creating awareness globally.
The EdSAFE AI Alliance is a community, within the DXtera non-for-profit organization, that brings together existing networks, frameworks, education organizations, research and standards bodies to create a single, global network to learn from, connect and work with each other, and provide global leadership for the development of a safer, more equitable and more trusted education ecosystem of AI innovation.
Why AI?
In the face of drastic global teacher shortages, societal disruptions, and regulatory uncertainty for new technology, increasing numbers of AI-based educational tools (artificial intelligence, machine learning, advanced analytics, etc) are already being introduced into the learning, education and workforce market. As yet, however, there are no unified approaches to establishing benchmarks, which can help both users discern the quality and reliability of these new technologies, and regulatory bodies navigate these new challenges.
AI technologies are going to play a pivotal role in our education ecosystems. We want to ensure that role is equitable and safe.

FOUNDED BY

The DXtera Institute is a non-profit consortium with active members around the world. In close collaboration with our members, DXtera provides solutions, technical services, and community support in the areas of next-generation education systems, data management, and integration solutions.
DXtera hosts specialized communities within the membership organization to support collaborative activities addressing complex challenges within education. The EdSAFE AI Alliance is one of these communities.
We began, and continue, this community with an open invitation to join in its formation to address this gap in the market. The intent was to provide an opportunity to participate in the development of a framework and in future possible certification activities that would create a greater understanding of and trust in the utilization of AI in education.
Participation in the community does not require engagement with solutions or services available through DXtera, but does require a membership agreement through the community.
