About

Pieter Vanden Broeck is a leading voice in the critical study of technology’s role in education, with a particular focus on the intersection of automation, artificial intelligence, and pedagogical theory. His most-cited work, “Laws of Edu-Automation? Three Different Approaches to Deal with Processes of Automation and Artificial Intelligence in the Field of Education” (2022), has garnered 16 citations and stands as a foundational piece in the emerging discourse on how AI reshapes learning environments. In this paper, Vanden Broeck systematically delineates three distinct frameworks for understanding and governing the integration of automated systems in classrooms, moving beyond simplistic techno-optimism to address ethical, legal, and pedagogical complexities. His research is notable for bridging philosophical inquiry with practical policy considerations, offering educators and policymakers a nuanced toolkit for navigating the rapid digitization of education. Vanden Broeck’s work is essential reading for anyone concerned with ensuring that AI serves human flourishing rather than merely efficiency, marking him as a critical thinker in the ongoing debate over the future of learning.
