Smart Education in the Age of AI Published in 2025 by Smart Learning Institute of Beijing Normal University, 12F, Block A, Jingshi Technology Building, No. 12 Xueyuan South Road, Haidian District, Beijing, 100082, China We would like to thank all the BNU students and graduates who shared their firsthand experiences of learning and teaching.

Education stands at a defining moment. As the world faces widening inequalities, accelerating technological change, and the urgent imperative of achieving Sustainable Development Goal 4 (SDG 4), the concept of smart education has emerged as both an effective approach and a vision for the future of education. Reimagining smart education in the Age of AI responds to this moment with clarity and conviction—offering a roadmap for transforming learning systems through the ethical and equitable use of artificial intelligence and appropriate technologies. This report is not just a reflection of where we are, but a call to action. While the digital revolution has already begun to reshape education, its benefits remain unevenly distributed—especially across the Global South. This report highlights the need for innovation while demanding systemic, human-centered change to ensure no learner is left behind. Developed through a collaboration led by Beijing Normal University and Hangzhou Normal University—with support of UNESCO IITE and the Global Smart Education Network (GSENet)—the report draws on decades of research and diverse case studies from countries of the Global South. It is clear that technology alone is not the solution. The future of education must combine the best in the human and the machine, in theory and practice, and in policy and action. Three themes emerge from this report: i) Teachers are being called into new roles as facilitators, mentors, and co-designers of learning and empowering them is essential to any smart education strategy; ii) Smart education is not a one-size-fits-all approach but must be tailored to local needs, cultures, and infrastructures; iii) South-South cooperation, and cross-sector partnerships are vital to the successful implementation of smart education. As we look ahead to 2030 and beyond, smart education challenges the education sector to move beyond pilot projects and isolated innovations, toward systemic change guided by principles of equity, ethics, and sustainability. Smart education is not merely a technological upgrade—it is a reimagining of learning itself, built for resilience, inclusivity, and the uncertain challenges of the future. We extend our deepest appreciation to the researchers, educators, policymakers, and communities who contributed their insights to this endeavor. We hope this report will serve as a critical resource for those committed to transforming education for a fairer, smarter, and more just world.
