Impact at National Scale

Foundational Literacy & Numeracy

  • Early Gains: Personalized exercises accelerate mastery in core skills.
  • Continuous Measurement: Fine-grained assessments guide instruction and resources.

Teacher Empowerment

  • Actionable Dashboards: Surface student needs and instructional opportunities.
  • Reduced Workload: Automate routine tasks to focus time on teaching.

Credentialing & Mobility

  • Trusted Records: Secure transcripts and credentials for lifelong learning.
  • Seamless Transitions: Enable students to move across schools and systems without friction.

Policy & Governance

  • Evidence-Based Policy: Aggregated insights inform investments and reforms.
  • Responsible AI: Transparent, auditable models uphold fairness and equity.

Executive Summary

Education is a critical pathway to empowerment and equity, yet traditional examinations are slow, opaque, and disconnected from the insights needed to uplift students and inform policy. EduAI™ enables a national, low-cost, AI-powered, QR-enabled assessment system that transforms how student performance is measured, analyzed, and acted upon—without new hardware.

The Problem

Kenya's secondary system serves over 4.1 million students across 10,752 schools. Teacher burden (ratios up to 70:1), paper-based workflows, and delayed results prevent timely feedback and systemic insight. Rich data on student backgrounds, literacy, and learning challenges remains uncaptured, limiting effective policy and support.

The Innovation

EduAI™ solution overview and workflow

Each printed exam paper includes a unique QR code linked to the student and subject. Using only a teacher's smartphone:

  1. Scan the QR code during marking.
  2. Capture the completed paper with the phone camera.
  3. AI reads, grades, and analyzes performance instantly.
  4. Insights are uploaded to a secure cloud for real‑time access by teachers, students, and parents.
  5. Adaptive learning recommendations are generated for every student.

No new hardware required: paper, a printer, and a teacher's phone.

The Bonus Question: A National AI Data

Each exam includes an optional bonus question (not graded) to capture background, literacy, aspirations, and challenges. Aggregated and anonymized, these responses power nation‑scale insights to:

  • Map literacy gaps across regions with precision.
  • Predict students at risk before they fail.
  • Target scholarships and interventions with accuracy.
  • Equip policymakers with evidence-based insights.
  • Inform broader, AI-driven social planning.

Impact Potential

  • Students: Receive AI-personalized feedback and adaptive pathways aligned to aspirations and workforce needs.
  • Teachers: Reduce admin workload by up to 80%; use predictive analytics to address learning gaps early.
  • NGOs & Partners: Identify and prioritize beneficiaries with AI-powered targeting and needs mapping.
  • Policymakers: Access real-time dashboards for performance and talent distribution to guide reforms.
  • Society: Build a transparent, equitable, data-driven assessment ecosystem that strengthens trust.
