ENCORE Final Blended Conference: AI in Education: What’s the Point?
The ENCORE partners met in Pisa, Italy, on the 7th and 8th of May 2025 for their last onsite meeting and final conference. On Wednesday, the 7th, the partners discussed the latest developments in the project and the final upcoming activities. On the 8th, the partners organised a final blended conference called: “AI in Education: What’s the Point?” from 14.00 to 17.00 CEST.
During this event, the partners showed how generative AI and open educational resources (OER) can help educators design engaging lessons and teach the modern skills needed in today’s world. Our partners shared experiences and best practices for creating lessons using AI-driven tools, reusing OER, and recognizing learning achievements through micro-credentials. It was also a great chance to connect with peers—teachers, researchers, and industry professionals—who want to keep improving education across Europe.
Beyond the Limits: AI Uses That Are Off the Table
On Thursday the 17th fo April 2024, the second official ENCORE International Event, called Beyond the Limits: AI Uses That Are Off teh Table took place. During this event we linked the ENCORE outcomes to Artificial Intelligence in education with our keynote speaker Deniz Iren, who is a manager, teacher, entrepreneur, and software developer with 20+ years of experience in industry-academia collaboration settings. He holds a tenured faculty position as associate professor at the Department of Information Science. His research areas are: affective computing, human-computer interaction, and artificial Intelligence.

ENCORE webinar: Explore Open Educational Resources for Teachers & Educators!
On Tuesday the 4th of March we our partners from HOU organized the ENCORE webinar, titled “Open Educational Resources for Teachers & Educators“, where they explored the transformative potential of OERs in modern education.
OERs offer freely accessible, openly licensed materials designed to enhance teaching, learning, and research without financial or legal barriers. These resources range from media-rich content to interactive quizzes and educational games, providing valuable tools for educators worldwide.
During this session, they introduced the ENCORE platform, a digital hub designed to support the integration of OERs into everyday teaching. Join us to discover how OERs can empower educators and enhance learning experiences.

What was on the Agenda:
26 february 2024 – Unlocking the Future of Education – Your Ally for Green, Digital, and Entrpreneurial Learning
In a post-pandemic scenario, transitioning to a society that embraces technological innovation, creativity and careful consideration of human and environmental sustainability is a concern for the EU region. How can education support such an endeavor? Inclusive and quality education is called into question; however, education professionals need to reflect and experiment to ensure the best, possible ways. In this session, we discuss several educators experiences and ideas after trying the ENCORE, an AI-driven system, as an ally in their search to promote DGE skills.
