Opening Remark
The theme for this summit—AI-Powered Digital Pedagogy—challenges us to rethink and reimagine the role of AI in education. How can we leverage AI to enhance creativity, collaboration, and critical thinking? How do we bridge the gap between technology and pedagogy to create truly student-centric learning environments?
Over the last 10 years, we have witnessed education evolve in ways we never imagined. With AI now at the heart of digital transformation, the way we teach, learn, and lead is being redefined. But amidst this change, one thing remains constant—our commitment to humanizing education, fostering meaningful learning experiences, and ensuring technology serves as an enabler, not a replacement.
Education has always been about empowering minds and unlocking potential. And now, with AI as our co-pilot, we have the opportunity to reimagine teaching and learning in ways we once only dreamed of. Thus, I say this again AI is not here to replace educators—it is here to enhance our capabilities, free us from routine tasks, and allow us to focus on what truly matters: fostering critical thinking, creativity, and deep learning.

Visionary Voices:
Panelist:
Ms. Chanda Raisinghani, The Ardee School: A school is planning a whole-school AI adoption with targeted outcomes for students and teachers across junior, middle, and senior levels. How can this be seamlessly integrated into existing workflows to maximise impact without being seen as an additional burden?
Mrs. Parvathy Seshadri, Principal, The HDFC School, Bangalore: Your school is a De Pedagogics ‘AI Explorer School’, please share with us what are the primary successes and challenges your school encountered when adopting AI, and how can educational leaders provide the vision, resources, and support needed to overcome these barriers effectively?
Ashish Aggarwal, MethdAI : Students in a school’s innovation lab are encouraged to develop AI-driven solutions for local community challenges (e.g., waste management, digital accessibility). Meanwhile, teachers worry about adding another subject to an already packed curriculum. What strategies can help educators without a programming background feel confident in teaching basic coding concepts to children?
Ms. Ridhi Agarwal, AcadAlly: With class sizes exceeding 40 students and teachers struggling to manage personalised learning and progress tracking, how can AI-powered platforms streamline workflows and improve learning outcomes for all students?

Closing: The Future of Nurturing Education
As we stand at the crossroads of education and innovation, one thing is clear—the future of nurturing education is not just something we anticipate; it’s something we create. We have witnessed incredible stories of transformation, resilience, and creativity. The educators in this room are not just adapting to change; they are leading it. They are pioneers, harnessing AI-powered pedagogy to make learning more personalized, inclusive, and engaging for every student, everywhere. But this is just the beginning. Starting this March, we are thrilled to introduce “Tech Talk Tuesdays”—a dedicated platform for educators to explore the latest advancements in AI, exchange ideas, and co-create the future of digital pedagogy. And the best part? It comes at no cost—our exclusive offering to ensure no teacher is left behind. Beyond this, our AI School Programs will help institutions integrate AI seamlessly, building a strong foundation for 21st-century learning. We are not just preparing students for the future; we are preparing them to shape it.
