Yidan Education Forum 2023

Artificial Intelligence and the Future of Education: Redesigning Learning

Education inherently looks towards the future, with the tomorrow of human society embedded in today's education. Technological, cultural, and innovative advancements continue to reshape education towards the future. We understand that education will remain a pivotal force in the future, but how it reshapes society and civilization is the uncertainty we seek to explore. The forum's objective is to foster meaningful dialogues and deliberations on a wide range of topics, including the future of education, international education, emerging paradigms, theoretical practices, global trends, and more. (Click here to download the forum agenda)
