Education 5.0: Where Innovation Meets Humanity

We are entering a new era of education. An era where technology is not the goal, but a tool — for deeper learning, meaningful connection, and shared responsibility for the future.
Education 5.0 envisions a world where data meets sensitivity, code meets imagination, and automation meets empathy.
It is a space where innovation meets humanity — where learning embraces our needs, identities, emotions, and aspirations. The question is no longer whether to implement AI, immersive systems, or personalization — but why, for whom, and with what values at heart. Do these technologies teach responsibility? Do they inspire creativity? Do they build trust and strengthen relationships?

That’s why this year’s conference invites you to explore three essential dimensions of this transformation:

Education 5.0 – Discover how immersive technologies, arts, and personalized learning are reshaping educational models. What kind of learning will empower the next generation? What role will emotion, expression, and equity play in shaping future-ready education
HumanTech – Explore the human–technology relationship through the lens of empathy, identity, and ethical design. What does it mean to be human in an AI-driven world? How do we protect agency, foster well-being, and preserve the human touch in increasingly digital environments
Algorithms of Trust – Rethink the role of transparency, fairness, and accountability in digital systems. Can we build technology that we truly trust? What responsibilities do we bear as educators, researchers, engineers, and citizens in the algorithmic age?

We believe that the future of education is not only about tools — it is about the values we choose and the connections we build. This conference is a space for co-creating a future where learning is inclusive, expressive, ethical, and deeply human-centered.
Let us shape that future — together.

Education 5.0: Immersion, Collaboration, Expression

This track explores the role of art, aesthetics, and creativity in designing contemporary educational experiences. We focus on art as a powerful medium for knowledge, expression, and transformation — both personal and societal.
How can VR, AR, and immersive art enhance learning? How does arts education support future-ready skills like creativity, empathy, and cultural awareness? We also invite discussion on media art, bio-art, and generative art as new dimensions of interdisciplinarity in STEAM.
The track invites reflection on emotion, identity, and embodiment in learning – especially in the context of artistic and technological practices. We also highlight the transformative potential of art as a language of social change – a tool that can empower, connect, and inspire. This is a space for educators, artists, researchers, designers, and anyone who believes that the future of education can be co-created through art.

At the heart of this track is the human being — immersed in a world of algorithms, data, and artificial intelligence. We explore how our relationships, autonomy, and sense of identity evolve in the context of rapidly advancing technologies, and how these shifts influence both formal and informal education.
What does it mean to be a “Human 4.0” in an algorithm-driven world? Where does technology end and the uniquely human experience begin — especially in learning environments?
We ask how education systems can respond to technological transformation not only by integrating new tools, but by reinforcing what makes learning deeply human: emotion, curiosity, social connection, and ethical reflection. How can AI assist — without replacing — authentic teacher–student relationships?
This track invites researchers, educators, engineers, UX designers, social scientists, artists and philosophers to reflect on the evolving human–technology relationship — and to explore how to build educational systems and technological tools that are inclusive, ethical, and genuinely human-centered.
Together, we seek ways to ensure that the future of learning remains not only innovative and data-informed, but also compassionate, empowering, and profoundly human.

In a world increasingly shaped by data and algorithms, the question of trust in technology has become one of the most urgent challenges of our time. This track explores how to build digital systems — especially those used in education and science — that are transparent, ethical, and secure.
Can we trust decisions made by artificial intelligence? How can we ensure algorithmic transparency in systems that influence learning outcomes, recruitment processes, and access to information? What forms of responsibility should accompany the design and deployment of such systems.
We also ask how to foster digital and civic competencies that empower individuals to navigate and question automated environments. What should education teach about AI to build informed trust — based on knowledge, critical thinking, and shared responsibility?
This track invites researchers, educators, engineers, ethicists, policymakers, and digital designers to join a dialogue on how to shape technologies — and the educational systems that use them — in ways that are trustworthy, inclusive, and accountable.
Because responsible technology begins with responsible questions.
