OCTOBER 23-24, 2026 UNIVERSITY OF ILLINOIS-CHICAGO AGAINST THE AI CAMPUS BUILDING POWER IN HIGHER EDUCATION Employers and legislators are pushing EdTech and Artificial Intelligence (AI) through universities and colleges across the U.S. Higher education workers need a comprehensive response that builds our organizing capacity through bargaining and advocacy campaigns that allow us to build power around these critical issues. We are seeing Al and EdTech being pushed on workers in community colleges, four-year institutions, and research universities, public and private alike. The scope of this concerted attack by tech companies and federal, state, and local governments begs the question: Who is actually benefiting from it? HELU and our partners in UIC United Faculty AFT Local 6456 are hosting a day-long deep dive into higher education, EdTech, and Al. This workshop is aimed at: understanding and producing contract language that protects workers; strategizing together to create a national organizing model against the technoligarchy; creating legislative frameworks locals can take to their state legislatures and Congress; and deepening workers' understanding of the issue.

My doctoral research at the University of Lancashire focused on building models to address exactly these kinds of inequalities for disabled and neurodivergent learners, looking at how we use Edtech. Over the next year, I will be focusing on writing up and publishing these papers.

Well considering we spend 900 million a year in Edtech, thought we best know how its working.

Brutal Conclusion... not very well.

i've always thought edtech was bad, but i'm starting to think that it is legitimately evil. amoral at best, straight up satanic at worst

I can see the headline now, "Armed with an arsenal of curse words and a sense of humor, parents derail edtech industry."

"The anti-edtech side smells blood in the water. Like the opponents of AI data centers, they're motivated.... They're also funnier, more profane & far more capable of advancing their agenda, both locally & nationally, than the people populating LinkedIn."

I'm up for it. Loads in mine.... assessments, ethics, SEND, CPD, Leadership, mean it's massive like 150k plus words. Pick a area... the Edtech relationship one and SEND pretty jaw dropping.

I would run for political office to regulate edtech and my campaign slogan would be on nighttime tv ads:

“It is 10pm, do you know where your child’s data is going today?”

Agree

And we should go further and ban the gambling and addictive behaviour that is enabled and encouraged in edtech too.

All those apps that have leagues, streaks and points for who wins/ spends the most time? That’s gambling/addictive habits being TAUGHT.

Every country should ban it. When you watch commercial TV live in the UK there’s always an ad for online gambling, aimed at women their target demographic

Lula won in part by banning online gambling

I might be late to the game but quite excited about openfactbook.org

It is pretty amazing what a community of people can create when World Factbook was discontinued.
