From co-creation to co-implementation: a pilot

At NOLAI, we develop well-thought-out and responsible applications of educational AI. We do this in co-creation projects, in which we collaborate with companies, scientists and schools. We develop the most promising prototypes that emerge from our co-creation projects for implementation and upscaling in education. NOLAI is currently running an initial co-implementation pilot to develop the co-implementation methodology.

From co-creation to co-implementation 

NOLAI develops prototypes in co-creation projects together with schools, companies, and scientists. As of 2027, several promising prototypes are further developed into scalable products. A pilot project is currently underway, in which NOLAI collaborates with Snappet and Lucas Onderwijs. The pilot focuses on the development and implementation of an adaptative arithmetic curriculum. At the same time, the pilot aims to develop a co-implementation methodology.  

Aim of the pilot 

  • Shape sustainable innovation in education
  • Develop a co-implementation methodology
  • Further develop an existing prototype into a scalable product 

From prototype to product 

Snappet Copilot is an AI solution for teachers in primary education to provide tailor-made arithmetic lessons. AI offers suggestions; teachers can ignore, adjust or accept them. Teachers can use this to plan their lessons (time gain) and provide an adaptive curriculum for their students based on their level (tailor-made education). 

Scaling in practice 

In an adaptive curriculum, primary school teachers tailor their arithmetic lessons to their class and pupils. AI, in the shape of Snappet Copilot, provides suggestions for the lesson plan and gives tips for adjustments. Teachers can ignore, modify, or accept them. This way teachers work together with AI to adapt their lessons to the needs of the class and individual pupils. 

Which of the teacher’s tasks can AI replace (or not), and in what ways can AI complement the teacher or enrich arithmetic education? Research plays an important role in this process. The project team shares new insights and methodologies, and, as soon as possible, also via news and publications. As a result, other schools and Edtech companies can use the accrued knowledge for their innovations.

Want to participate in the pilot 

The pilot started with four Lucas Onderwijs schools, after which it will be expanded with another 20 schools. Every six weeks, there are improvement sessions in which teachers, developers and researchers work together on iterative improvements to classroom practices and sustainable implementation. In this way, teachers learn from and with each other by sharing knowledge and experiences about working with an AI solution in regard to their teaching. Participants receive proper guidance: there are regular (online) meetings and coaches are available at each school.
