A Global Education Trial Network

Build a preregistered global network for classroom AI trials across languages, ages, subjects, and resource levels. Common outcomes and open materials would reveal which gains replicate, where harms concentrate, and whether an interface choice matters more than the model logo. Education needs cumulative evidence, not a procession of isolated demos.

Why this idea is here

What the evidence establishes.

Recent randomized trials show context-specific gains; OECD’s global synthesis highlights the need for evidence on effective uses rather than assumed benefits.
