Show Notes

A digital education expert is cautious of blanket adoption of artificial intelligence for exam marking.  

Education Minister Erica Stanford says AI is already partly used for marking and expects it could do almost all assessments by 2028.  

It comes as the Government plans to scrap NCEA for an entirely new qualification.
