StudentSupport Source：McKinsey&Company(2020) Mental health, career guidance Note:McKinsey surveyed over 2,000 teachers from Canada, Singapore,UKandthe USto quantify their time allocationacross 37 core teaching activities.These four countries have relatively high adoption rates of education technology.Findings revealed that teachers worked an average of 50 hours per week. By assessing the technological capabilities at thetime and conducting expert interviews, McKinseyfurtheranalysed the automation potentialof each activity and estimatedthe amount of time that could be saved.

OHKF conductsresearch on the application of AI in teaching and learning Research Partner •Explore the impact of AI applications on primary and secondaryschool teachers and students, aiming to cultivate future talentsfor the era of AI and prepare for the digital future •From July to December 2025, we have conducted a survey titled“The Application of Artificial Intelligence (AI) Tools in Teachingand Learning in Hong Kong” amongprimary and secondaryschool principals, teachers, and students, and have carried outstakeholder interviews •We hope to understand the status, needs, and challenges ofteachers and students in using AI tools,in order todevelopappropriate strategies andutiliseAI to empower education Observation 1: AI is deeply integrated into teaching and learning, with over90% of teachers and students using AI 90% of teaching staff and students have used AItools during teaching or learning activities Most frequently used tools are POE and Deepseek,but AI toolpreferences reflect a generational difference Primary purposes of AI for teachers and students Students primarily use AI for researchingand doing homework,less for extracurricular exploration. Observation 2a:AItoolsmay pose potential risks to students’cognitive development Teachers are concerned that AI over-reliance will hinder students'problem-solving skills and critical thinking Overusing AI can lead to cognitive regression,accumulating“cognitive debt” in the long-term Cognitive debt Short-sighted trade-off: sacrificing long-term cognitivedevelopment for short term convenience A study of the influence of AI-assistedwriting on cognitive abilities Participants are assigned into three groups: Brain-only(No tools used) •83%failed to quote the essays they had just written•Compared to the brain-only group, there was a47%declinein brain activity and neural connectivity•Participants’ writing skills regressed to a beginner level afterremoving AI support Observation 2b:Students' awareness of privacy and security risksassociated with AI tools needs to be strengthened Observation 3:Currentteachertrainingmaybe insufficient tobuildeffective AIskills among teachers and students Observation 3:Currentteachertrainingmaybe insufficient tobuildeffective AIskills among teachers and students. Subjects with lower AI integrationin teaching •Is the nature of the subject notsuitable for AI assistance?•Are teachers unable to exploremethods for integrating AI intoteaching?•Do teachers lack resourcesand time? Subjects with higher AI integrationin teaching •Is AI being used appropriatelyand effectively to enhanceteaching and learningoutcomes?•Or is it being used merely forthe sake of using it? Survey Analysis Summary •Teachers and students are predominantly using international open-sourced AI platforms, such asPOE and DeepSeek•Teachers mainly use AI for teaching assistance (57%) and handling administrative task
