How can generative AI become a catalyst for deeper learning? Our latest white paper addresses this question through a groundbreaking case study: a cognitive co-pilot prototype LLM developed by Tom Chatfield, technologist Timo Hannay, City St George’s, University of London, Raspberry Pi Foundation, Wolfram, Bond and Coyne, and Sage. Using Chatfield’s critical thinking textbooks as the knowledge base, the co-pilot delivered: 🔹Real-time insights for educators 🔹Personalized feedback for students 🔹Adaptive learning pathways for complex topics It can act as a thinking partner — helping learners develop foundational skills while freeing instructors to focus on deeper learning. Drawing on cognitive science, instructional research, and practical examples like this, the paper offers actionable strategies for integrating AI into teaching and assessment and highlights the need for educators to become designers and facilitators of learning environments.

Published today, our new report ‘The contemporary relevance of the social sciences’, showcases the essential role the UK’s social sciences play in harnessing the many opportunities and mitigating the numerous challenges we face in our contemporary human world. With their unique understanding of people, societal structures, economies, behaviours, governance and place at multiple scales, the social sciences are vital in helping to inform and influence government and societal responses to the many varied challenges we face in the UK and globally, including adapting to a changing climate, the rapid and globalised shift in technology use, and increasingly difficult decisions of cost, access and equality in public health provision. The contemporary relevance of the social sciences, which is a joint publication between the Academy’s Campaign for Social Science and Sage, demonstrates how the social sciences are contributing to the wellbeing of the UK and its devolved nations and regions through eight broad principles, each of which are supported by evidence and example case studies: 1️⃣ The social sciences are the understanding of people, society, economy and places 2️⃣ The UK is a social science powerhouse 3️⃣ The social sciences bring economic value 4️⃣ The social sciences serve society 5️⃣ The social sciences facilitate innovation 6️⃣ The social sciences improve people’s lives by guiding good decision-making 7️⃣ Social science subjects are open and available to all 8️⃣ Social science skills are valued by employers and lead to well-paid careers We hope this report will be a user-friendly reference for policymakers, academics and practitioners in setting out the case for how the social science sector is bettering British society and how its untapped potential can be unleashed.
