Artificial Intelligence (AI) is no longer a matter reserved for the future or limited to the technological sphere: it is already a reality that is profoundly transforming every sector of society, including education. This month’s issue of the newsletter “Insights from the Statistical Department” aims to offer a critical and up-to-date perspective on one of the most crucial topics of our time, presenting key reflections from the lecture by lawyer Ernesto Belisario, titled “Artificial Intelligence and Education: New Regulatory Challenges and Legal Perspectives,” delivered during the 9th edition of the Seminar “Data of and for the Education System: Tools for Research and Teaching".
The April issue of the newsletter “Insights from the Statistical Department” is dedicated to the use and significance of INVALSI data for Education Policy — the decisions and trends that shape education and the school system. These policies aim to improve educational outcomes, ensure the right to education, and promote inclusion.
