The ASE is delighted to be hosting its’ 2027 Annual Conference at the University of Northampton from 7th to 9th January.


Friday January 8, 2027 14:45 - 15:40 GMT
This year's Talking Science explores the evolving role of teachers in a world increasingly shaped by artificial intelligence. As AI transforms how young people learn, communicate and access knowledge, what does this mean for the future of science teaching? The session will consider both the opportunities and challenges facing science educators in supporting young people to become scientifically literate.
Following short stimulus inputs from our speakers, delegates will discuss and prioritise their recommendations for policy and practice that will help ensure the benefits of AI are realised equitably across science education. The discussion will explore implications for curriculum, assessment, teacher expertise, equity and students' future engagement with science.
SEPA intends to produce a short summary of key themes emerging from the discussion.

In common with our previous Talking Science sessions, this session promises thought-provoking insights and lively debate. We look forward to seeing you there and your contributions.

The Science Education Policy Alliance (SEPA) brings together the Association for Science Education, Institute of Physics, Royal Society, Royal Society of Biology and Royal Society of Chemistry to coordinate and collaborate on science education policy www.se-pa.co.uk

Refreshments will be served at the end of this session, courtesy of SEPA, for 25 minutes.
