Many of our US readers will now be heading into the summer break, although we know the final day varies considerably between states and school districts. We hope everyone finishing the school year gets the opportunity to slow down and recharge after another busy year.
For our UK readers, the summer weather has certainly arrived, with an intense heatwave affecting much of the country this week. We hope you are managing to stay cool, hydrated, and as comfortable as possible, particularly if you are working in classrooms or buildings that were not designed for temperatures quite like these.
There is plenty to catch up on across EdTech this week. We look at OpenAI’s latest cybersecurity tools, MDPI’s use of AI to screen thousands of manuscript submissions, and the University of Sydney’s Cogniti teaching platform. We also cover two UK funding stories, share the latest ETIH Innovation Awards winner profile featuring Learna | Diploma MSc, and remember pioneering University of Oxford engineer and educator Professor Malcolm McCulloch.
Here are the stories you may have missed:
Updated developer workflows can validate security findings and generate patches, while access to OpenAI’s advanced cyber model remains restricted to trusted defenders.
Ethicality is now screening every manuscript and peer review report submitted to MDPI for potential paper mill activity, fabricated references, manipulated text, and authorship concerns.
The educator-controlled platform allows teachers to create course-specific AI agents for feedback, simulations, and problem-solving, following use across University of Sydney courses and nursing trials in New Zealand.
Learna | Diploma MSc was recognized for combining university partnerships, flexible postgraduate medical education, global access, and measurable career and retention outcomes.
The engineer, teacher, and sustainable energy researcher is remembered for his work with students, colleagues, and University of Oxford spinouts.
