Subprojekt AI in studying, teaching and exams
Developing AI policy for universities in Lower Saxony
This sub-project develops cross-university advisory, support and training services, trials digital learning technologies and tests innovative teaching and learning concepts. It monitors current developments in the field of AI and draws up policies that support teachers, students and administrators in the legally compliant and future-oriented use of AI.
AI in studies, teaching and examinations strengthens universities in Lower Saxony technologically, legally and didactically in dealing with the opportunities and challenges of artificial intelligence.
It pursues three objectives:
- the development of AI skills among teachers and students,
- the resource-efficient provision of further training and support services, and
- the development of innovative, data protection-compliant teaching and examination formats.
All 20 universities in Lower Saxony are participating in the subproject, forming six work areas:
- Evaluation and monitoring
- Knowledge transfer
- Use of AI in examinations
- Scientific writing and student content production
- Science-based, target group-oriented education
- Data research and Data analysis

The project AI in Studies, Teaching and Examinations is part of the ‘Digital Teaching Hub Lower Saxony’ (DLHN) (in German).
