LEGO® is taking a clear step into the future of learning through its investments in artificial intelligence through LEGO® Education Data Science and AI. As a proud partner, ABA Skol AB offers both materials, training and support for schools in this area. LEGO® Education Data Science and AI is a new solution that gives teachers the opportunity to teach data science and AI through collaborative, practical elements that are connected to the students interests. The material is rich in content and includes over 90 lessons that are adapted to the curriculum, structured and arranged in the right sequence. Through LEGO® Education Data Science and AI, students learn how machines can be trained with data, make decisions and improve over time. Key concepts such as algorithms, pattern recognition and machine learning are explained in a playful and educational way. In this way, students not only gain knowledge about the technology – but also an understanding of how it can be used responsibly. An important part of LEGO® Education Computer Science and AI is to develop critical thinking and problem-solving skills. Students are encouraged to test, make mistakes and improve their solutions. Collaboration is also at the heart of it, where students learn to discuss ideas and work together towards common goals. The material also makes it easy for teachers to get started, even without previous experience of computer science and AI. At the same time, it gives teachers with more prior knowledge the opportunity to continue with more advanced learning and in-depth study. LEGO® does not only want to teach children how AI works, but also how it affects society. Ethical issues, responsibility and understanding of the role of technology in everyday life become a natural part of the teaching. In this way, LEGO® Education equips the next generation with both technical knowledge and important future skills.

n Linda Axelsson’s latest article in Siljan News, teacher Ulrica Elisson Grane (owner of the blog Ullis skolsida and the Instagram account @ullisskolsida) and her student Linnea Kers talk about how Imvi’s training has helped them. Linnea is in Year 6 and has been training with Imvi during school hours since January this year. She has suspected dyslexia and previously struggled with concentration — something that has improved significantly after the training with Imvi. Happily, she says that “reading has become much better and faster,” and that the training has helped her enormously across all subjects. The effects of the training were also reflected in her results on the national tests. Another student at Ullvi School also participated in the training during the spring. Ulrica explains that both that student and Linnea made major improvements on the test used to measure reading speed in Year 6. The benchmark for a sixth-grader is 95 words per minute, and Linnea is now reading at over 100 words per minute. Linnea says that it is now much easier to keep up with reading comprehension tests. She is also able to read subtitles when watching films and TV programmes. Unfortunately, the increased reading speed also means that she finishes her manga much faster — something she jokingly points out. One of the biggest advantages of Imvi’s training, according to Linnea, is that it is not demanding at all. She and her classmate trained by watching programmes from Binogi, UR Play, and SVT Play. Their favourites are Lilla Aktuellt and Geografens Testamente.

In an article published by Smålandsposten (June 15, 2025), the newspaper highlights how students with reading and concentration difficulties have received support through VR training at Linnéskolan in Älmhult. Over the course of twelve weeks, a group of students participated in a structured training program using Imvi’s technology. One of them was Zackarias, 14 years old, who has both ADHD and dyslexia. The training, which took place for 15 minutes per day before the school day began, aimed to improve binocular vision and eye coordination — factors that directly affect reading ability and focus. The students used their mobile phones together with VR headsets, training while watching moving content from sources such as SVT and YouTube. The results showed clear improvements among all participants, including increased reading speed and improved concentration. In Zackarias’s case, his reading speed increased by 33 percent. “It has become easier for me — both in school and outside of school.” — Zackarias Ernebrand “I am incredibly proud of the entire group that took part in and completed the project.” — Linda Holmgren Karlsson The research behind the VR training was developed in collaboration with researchers at the Karolinska Institute. It shows that poor binocular vision and weak visual attention affect both reading ability and concentration — something that is more common among students with reading difficulties, ADHD, or dyslexia. With VR, eye coordination can be trained in a simple and motivating way, often while watching educational programs from UR, SVT, or other sources. At Imvi, we are proud and grateful to all the students, teachers, and schools who dare to think differently — and to Smålandsposten for highlighting the results of Linnéskolan’s work.

Scentia AI is an AI-powered school platform designed to help schools work with AI in a structured and secure way without losing control over content, data privacy, or educational quality. The platform is built around the real workflow of schools: school administration → teachers → groups/courses → students. For teachers, Scentia provides a fast and efficient way to create and organize teaching content. Teachers can add materials and assessment matrices per group, create custom prompts, and generate quizzes and flashcards tailored to each class, including scheduled activities. For students, Scentia offers a personalized AI chat adapted to their course and strictly limited to teacher-provided materials, making study support more relevant and safer in a school environment. Students can also create quizzes and flashcards to study more effectively. Privacy is built in: teachers cannot access a student’s private AI chat (only administrators have access), while still receiving insights and analytics on activity and progress to identify students who may need additional support at an early stage. For schools, Scentia delivers a clear, role-based system with strong oversight, where AI becomes a practical tool that saves time, strengthens teaching quality, and supports more individualized learning fully aligned with everyday school operations.

The needs analysis covers four areas with challenges and questions around: School leaders; skills in the craft of observations and didactic conversations based on evidence Key personnel roles, mandates and skills Teachers; experiences of and confidence in receiving visits to classrooms Leading teaching development systematically with data

What is NPF – and how can the right support make a difference? Neuropsychiatric functional variations (NPF) include difficulties with how the brain processes, interprets and organizes information from our senses. This can involve impressions from touch, balance, vision, hearing, taste or proprioception – the body’s internal sense of position. When these impressions are not integrated as they should, everyday life can become more demanding, for both children and adults. Sensory processing is central to our development, ability to learn new things and to be able to act in a way that feels safe and appropriate. With sensory integration difficulties, you can, for example, experience hypersensitivity, avoidance behaviours, difficulty concentrating or challenges with motor skills, speech and learning. For many, adaptations or targeted tools provide valuable support in understanding their surroundings, planning, regulating emotions and creating structure. ABA Skol offers a wide range of products and solutions that support people with NPF of all ages – from sensory aids to educational tools and materials for adapted environments. Our goal is to contribute to a more understandable, safe and inclusive everyday life for everyone.
