"Sharing Practical Methods for AI-Based Classes"... Seoul Education Office to Host AI·Digital Learning Confesta

"What kinds of classes can be conducted in school classrooms using artificial intelligence (AI) and digital technology?" "What should parents teach to their children for education in the AI era?"

A forum will be held where teachers, parents, and ordinary citizens can share their perspectives on such questions.

On July 22, the Seoul Metropolitan Office of Education announced that it will host the class-sharing festival "2026 AI·Digital Learning Confesta" at COEX Magok Le West Hall from July 24 to 25.

The AI·Digital Learning Confesta is a venue for communication that centers around "class sharing" led spontaneously by teachers, sharing changes taking place in classrooms and the growth of students.

From the planning stage, 60 on-site teachers participated in designing the program directly, and for two days, a total of 110 teachers will take the stage as presenters to vividly share both the successes and failures of AI·digital-based classes.

This event will feature seven types of programs, including: ▲Sharing the essence of education and a joint vision for the AI·digital era ▲Twelve theme-based discussions based on case studies from the "Comprehensive AI Education Plan for Elementary, Middle, and High Schools" ▲Sharing examples from 110 teacher-presenters on AI·edutech-based lessons ▲A special lecture for parents on "Education for Children in the Age of AI Transformation (AX)" ▲Methods for realizing ideas through AI utilization ▲Teacher networking, exchange and recovery sessions ▲Sharing achievements with 400 pioneering school educators.

Additionally, all sessions will introduce an AI-based "real-time speech-to-text (STT) service," aimed at ensuring that anyone—including digital underprivileged individuals—can learn without barriers. Along with this, the Seoul Metropolitan Office of Education's "No. 1 Teacher Developer" will utilize a self-developed digital interactive tool to maximize two-way communication with participants. Data collected from live submissions of opinions will be immediately analyzed and visualized on-site, serving as a resource for interactive communications during the event.

Jeong Geunsik, Superintendent of the Seoul Metropolitan Office of Education, stated, "This Confesta is a meaningful festival created voluntarily by teachers who have been practicing future education, making them the true protagonists." He added, "I hope this becomes a place for sharing lesson examples reflecting the passion and expertise of teachers and for envisioning the future of Seoul’s education together, based on the 'Comprehensive AI Education Plan for Elementary, Middle, and High Schools' by the Seoul Metropolitan Office of Education."

Those who wish to participate can pre-register on the official website by July 22. On-site registration will also be available during the event.
