Partnerships Associate, Schools and Teacher Networks
The person who connects us with schools, data providers and teachers, and keeps the day-to-day running.
📍 US-based, ideally on Eastern Time - Remote
Individual
Employment type — Contract - Independent Expert
As Eticas expands its work on AI in Education in Europe and the US, we are looking to engage independent experts with different levels of expertise to make sure we have everyone at the table and different perspectives to assess our work. Engagements are remote, hourly-based and paid, with an initial defined scope.
Our work is focused on understanding how we can measure AI impacts on learning, and whether we have the tools to measure the right things and support the students who need it. We are also working to build standards so we have homogenized, comparable datasets to understand how learning is changing over time, what works and what doesn't, and for whom.
Working with schools, education authorities and edtech developers, we are testing AI scoring of complex student skills (written reasoning, collaborative problem solving, spoken reasoning) against trained teacher raters, and producing metrics and evidence that show when AI in learning can be trusted, and when it can't.
Our focus is on how AI performs on real student work, judged by real teachers, under real classroom conditions. We get as close as possible to the lived experience of learning and measure it, with the same discipline Eticas has applied for over a decade to AI in hiring, health and public services, among others.
This open call is part of our commitment to openness, inclusion and transparency, so that more voices can join this crucial work.
