The Socra Blog
At Socra, we’re rethinking how students are assessed in the age of AI. This blog is where our co-founders and team share ideas, reflections, and updates on education, technology, and the future of learning.
Here you’ll find essays on why we built Socra, how AI can support teachers rather than replace them, and what it means to assess not just answers but the reasoning behind them.

A.I. isn't the problem. Our idea of learning is.
Clay Shirky argues that only in-class paper exams can solve A.I. cheating. We suggest a better path: redesign assessment to capture reasoning, not only answers.
