There will be no tokenmaxxing happening in Norwegian classrooms. According to a report from Reuters, the nation\u2019s Prime Minister Jonas Gahr Stoere announced Friday that the government will impose restrictions on the use of AI tools in schools in an effort to combat what it sees as a negative impact on learning.<\/p>\n

The new rules, which will take effect when students return to school in August of this year, will place a near-total ban on AI for primary school students in first through seventh grade, generally covering ages 6 to 13. As the students enter lower secondary school for grades 8 through 10, where the kids are typically between the ages of 14 to 16, they will be permitted to use AI tools under the supervision of their teachers. For students ages 17 and older entering upper secondary school, the rules loosen a bit. But those kids are still encouraged to only use AI when appropriate.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe most important thing in school is that our children \u200blearn to read, write and do mathematics,\u201d Stoere said, according to Reuters. When you put it that way, it seems pretty reasonable!<\/p>\n

Norway has been one of the nations leading the pushback against the over-proliferation of technology in schools. In 2024, the nation banned smartphones from classrooms, requiring students to lock their devices up during school hours. It apparently did wonders. According to a study published by the Norwegian Institute of Public Health, bullying decreased across the board, and grade point averages started to climb once the device restriction was implemented. The nation followed that up with a planned social media ban earlier this year, which would keep anyone under the age of 16 off social platforms.<\/p>\n

As part of its luddite-ian mission to reduce reliance on tech in teaching environments, Norway\u2019s leadership also said that it plans to propose legislation that would increase funds for the purchase and use of books in classrooms, per Reuters.<\/p>\n

That shift is perhaps the most interesting for the nation, given what an about-face it is on its previous approach to tech in classrooms. Back in 2016, Norway announced a plan to issue a tablet to every student starting at the age of 5. The results were pretty devastating, as the country watched its literacy rate decline dramatically and its test scores tank. Now it\u2019s in the process of getting screens out of classroom environments and returning to a more analog approach. And sure, it might risk creating a generation of hipsters, but at least they\u2019ll be able to read.<\/p>\n
