Recent advancements in human-computer interaction, machine learning and in artificial intelligence hold the potential to influence both the curriculum and the pedagogy of school children. While the impacts of new technologies remain uncertain, ongoing research and innovation projects are already developing and testing such technologies in schools. This article builds on the experience of the authors as advisors for a Horizon 2020 (H2020) project conducting research with schoolchildren in twenty schools across the United Kingdom, Italy and Spain (the project MaTHiSiS). This contribution presents and discusses how the authors lived up to the obligation of conducting research in line with “ethical principles”.
