The question of AI in education is often reduced to debating about the impact of ChatGPT on the integrity of assessment. But AI in 2026 is not just ChatGPT and not just about what answers can be produced by a Large Language Model.
One of the leading trends is the rise of agentic AI systems that can not only write snippets of code but build entire software systems or websites. Since the start of 2025, the rise of capabilities has been stratospheric and by the end of 2025, this is in everybody’s reach. In fact, educators are leaving out an important pedagogic tool from their arsenal if they let these developments pass them by. This new approach to AI-assisted software development is often referred to as “vibecoding” and it is this style of coding that is the focus of this talk (in contrast to other forms of AI coding assistance aimed at developers).
This webinar will outline the state of the art and its implications. It will also look at the key tools and the best ways for educators to approach getting to know them in order to integrate them into their work. We will look at examples of various “vibecoded” tools shared on https://edutools.fyi.
