At MoodleMoot Global 2025 in Edinburgh, Artificial Intelligence took centre stage — not as a buzzword, but as a catalyst for more human learning. Across three days of inspiring talks and demonstrations, educators and innovators explored how AI can enhance connection, inclusion, and creativity in digital learning. From Fred Dixon’s vision of data-informed virtual classrooms to Amy Tessitore’s call for equitable, bias-aware course design, speakers redefined what “intelligent learning” can mean. The message was clear: when guided by ethics, empathy, and purpose, AI doesn’t replace educators — it empowers them to design more connected, inclusive, and inspiring learning experiences.

At MoodleMoot Global 2025 in Edinburgh, the focus turned to digital empowerment — giving learners not just access, but genuine agency in shaping their own online experiences. In his lively session, Gavin Henrick, Co-Founder of Brickfield Education Labs, demonstrated how accessibility can be creative, practical, and empowering. From a singalong inspired by The Proclaimers’ “I’m Gonna Be (500 Miles)” to hands-on tools from the Brickfield Accessibility Toolkit, attendees explored how small, simple actions can make a big impact on inclusivity and independence. The session’s message resonated clearly: when learners have the confidence and skills to personalise their digital environments, education becomes more accessible, engaging, and truly their own.
