Following our ongoing efforts to develop AI literacy within Further Education (FE), we’ve now extended our focus to include learners. As the role of generative (Gen) AI in education continues to grow, it’s essential that students have a basic understanding of these tools, not only for their future careers but also to support their current […]

In my role as an educator, I have witnessed firsthand the rapid evolution of technology and its profound impact on the design and fashion manufacturing sectors. One of the most exciting developments in recent years is the advent of generative AI (GenAI). GenAI is transforming the fashion industry, from product creation to trend forecasting, retail, […]
Over the last few months, we’ve had many conversations around generative AI for accessibility. These have been hugely positive and have highlighted many of the opportunities AI presents to make education a more accessible experience, which we’ve also explored in a previous blog. We’ve also become aware though that there are some emerging, and perhaps […]

AI has long been integral to many assistive technologies, and we have seen over the course of this year that there is considerable exploration occurring around the use of generative AI to enhance accessibility in education. In this post we look at a few of the emerging uses we’ve seen as well as discussing some […]
Automating transcriptions and captions is perhaps one of the most widespread uses of artificial intelligence (AI) in education today. When aiming to increase accessibility, these technologies— which frequently combine Automatic Speech Recognition (ASR) and Natural Language Processing (NLP) to produce text from audio —are a key focus. Indeed, the provision of captions for pre-recorded materials is a […]
