Areas of Action
Three challenges define the current state of education.
The learning crisis
After the pandemic, Latin America was one of the regions with the highest growth in learning poverty in the world. Today it is estimated that 80% of 10-year-olds cannot read or understand a simple text. It is estimated that the region lost around 10 years of progress in learning outcomes. It is urgent to improve the quality of education to reverse these effects. (UNICEF, UNESCO & World Bank, 2022. Two years after: Saving a generation.)
The disruption of AI
Existing AI solutions are mainly focused on efficiency, which can generate detrimental effects for education, such as promoting outdated pedagogical practices, fragmenting teacher workflows, and generating dependence instead of critical thinking. The historical opportunity that AI brings becomes a risk if efficiency replaces pedagogy.
Inequitable adoption of AI
Innovations are usually adopted autonomously only by a small proportion of users — innovators and early adopters, who represent barely 15% (Rogers) — while the majority never get to use or adopt them in time. The result is that educational technology ends up widening existing gaps instead of closing them. It is crucial that AI reaches the places that need it most.
Our proposal covers 3 axes to help face this triple challenge through three lines of action:
Our areas of action
Guiding the transformation
We accompany governments and educational institutions to understand where they are in their technological maturity, what they need to use technology effectively and safely, and how to advance step by step toward technology adoption with a clear pedagogical purpose.
Strengthening capacities
We train and accompany teachers, educational leaders, and students with proven learning methodologies in the development of key competencies and skills for the world of the future.
Innovating with purpose
We have built an ecosystem of pedagogically sound AI tools, with proven results, to accompany teachers and educational leaders at each stage of the teaching cycle. Additionally, we co-design and develop custom solutions, contextualized to integrate into the needs and realities of each institution.
