Successful Integration of AI in the Classroom: Barriers and Best Practices for Boosting Learning Outcomes

May 6, 2026
Startup Arena

Research by the consulting firm Futuresource indicates that 82% of teachers in Brazil believe that technology improves student outcomes, but there are still significant challenges to integrating it into the classroom, especially when it comes to artificial intelligence (AI). This session will present concrete data on how Brazilian educators are using AI in practice and how they perceive its impact on student engagement, academic performance, and classroom effectiveness. Join this discussion as we explore the real challenges that teachers and schools face in implementing and using AI effectively.

The panel will also examine practical approaches, emphasizing the essential role of professional development and ongoing support in helping teachers gain more confidence in using AI while engaging their students. Topics to be covered will include how to select the AI tools best suited to educational goals, as well as effective training strategies that integrate naturally into teachers’ existing workflows, ensuring better learning outcomes. This discussion offers a valuable opportunity for edtech companies to gain a deeper understanding of the practical challenges faced by teachers, contributing to the development of more effective and user-friendly tools for the classroom.
