  • @Ana_moderator Thank you, dear Anastasiia!
    I was getting a bit worried that I was not able to see the other entries. I downloaded my materials a while ago, so I'm looking forward to the next stage of the competition!

  • @Ana_moderator Thank you, Ms. Ana, for this information.

    It is indeed important to give everyone a chance to submit their work. Unfortunately, I only recently learned about this wonderful community, forum, and competition myself.

    Wishing everyone success!

  • @Ana_moderator This study tour to Serbia offers a fantastic chance to dive deep into cutting-edge developments in educational technology.
    Visiting the Center for Robotics and Artificial Intelligence in Education will give the winners firsthand insights into how AI is transforming learning environments. The chance to interact with leading experts and receive training on advanced technologies could significantly boost their knowledge and skills in this rapidly evolving field.
    The prospect of exploring prominent universities and teacher training institutions will provide valuable perspectives on how AI is being integrated into various educational settings. Plus, visiting an advanced school and exchanging ideas with peers from different backgrounds could spark innovative ideas for implementing AI in their own educational context.
    This tour seems perfectly aligned with my interest in AI as an educational tool. It's an excellent opportunity to see theory put into practice, network with like-minded professionals, and gain inspiration for future projects. My enthusiasm is well-placed – this experience could be a game-changer for my professional development in AI and education.

  • @Ana_moderator This is exciting news! I’m thrilled about the upcoming peer evaluation process and the study tour to Serbia. Visiting the Center for Robotics and AI in Education and learning from experts sounds incredible. Fingers crossed for the results! Also, on another note, just wondering why the deadline been extended again and again 🙂

  • Dear colleagues, do you see the uploaded works in the section of entries, or is it only me who has the problem?

  • Deall @all please review one more time the forum rules.

    We are currently reviewing all forum content to ensure that it is unique and well-organized.

    • If you share your teaching materials, please mention what you have personally tried and can recommend.
    • If you start a discussion, explain how it relates to your own experience.
    • If you share new information or create a new topic, make sure it is not simply a re-posting of materials from another source or theory (or generating the texts with the use of AI).

    Please note, that the use of generative AI is not prohibited, but it must be clearly marked and used solely to showcase teaching practices that have been successfully implemented in the classroom (like demostrating how AI can be used for creating pictures or lesson plans etc.)

    We kindly ask you to take this into consideration when creating your posts. Otherwise your posts might not be approved by the moderators.

    Thank you in advance for your cooperation and looking forward to seeing your ideas on the forum 👨‍💻

  • @Ana_moderator
    Hello Ana,
    Noted.

  • Yes dear Ana noted

  • Hello dear educators I am really happy to connect with such vibrant community of techy teachers. I faced technical problems while uploading my work, the main video part is missing and couldn't reupload. Have you faced such issues? I talked to Mrs Anastasi who replied quickly to my question and gave the advice to contact tech support. I have sent emails to technical support and got no answer so far. I am upset as the evaluation date is approaching. If you have any suggestions please do.
    I only need to upload the missing parts of my work.
    Wish you all the best, 🙏

  • @BASSEe36fe400f5 Bassem Rahmouni, One thing you should keep in mind that the mateial you are trying upload, must be uploaded on web only. There is no any other possibility. The same situation was for me when I was uploading mine. I was in very close touch with the UNESCO technical team. I also uploaded Har file and send it to technical team of UNESCO. They found nothing and said to upload again.
    Actually I think for uploading you must have a fstest network. A network with more than 1 MB upload speed can make it easy for uploading content.
    If still you feel difficulty then go to personal chat with @Ana_moderator. She is very hard working and giving prompt replies to solve your issues.
    Feel free here, this forum is yours dear.

  • @Ana_moderator Hi Ana, is the peer evaluation and award announcement been delayed again? Also, is there any already plan date for the study tour?

  • @Ana_moderator Hi Ana, my submission is still under audit, and I still couldn't see the other entries for peer evaluation.
