Artificial intelligence is becoming more and more a part of our lives.. As such, it becomes necessary for educators and librarians s to prepare students as responsible users and co-creators of AI by ntegrating AI learning objectives into curricula across school disciplines. The following links provide either background information or frameworks of AI Literacy.
Why AI literacy is now a core competency in education
The World Economic Forum is developing a framework for AILiteracy defines AI literacy as a blend of knowledge, skills and attitudes that enable learners to engage with AI responsibly and effectively. It is organized around four practical domains. This article cantains background information and a draft proposal of the framework.
Conceptualizing AI literacy: An exploratory review
Artificial Intelligence (AI) has spread across industries (e.g., business, science, art, education) to enhance user experience, improve work efficiency, and create many future job opportunities. However, public understanding of AI technologies and how to define AI literacy is under-explored. This vision poses upcoming challenges for our next generation to learn about AI. On this note, an exploratory review was conducted to conceptualize the newly emerging concept “AI literacy”, in search for a sound theoretical foundation to define, teach and evaluate AI literacy. Grounded in literature on 30 existing peer-reviewed articles, this review proposed four aspects (i.e., know and understand, use and apply, evaluate and create, and ethical issues) for fostering AI literacy based on the adaptation of classic literacies. This study sheds light on the consolidated definition, teaching, and ethical concerns on AI literacy, establishing the groundwork for future research such as competency development and assessment criteria on AI literacy.
AI competency framework for students
This publication aims to help educators integrating artificial intelligence learning objectives into official school curricula to prepare students to be responsible and creative citizens in the era of AI.
