Critical Literacy
Below are some questions to promote Critical Literacy skills around AI in education:
Should human teachers and educators always have the final say over important decisions, or can we trust AI systems to make autonomous decisions about students' learning and assessment?
How can we ensure that AI in education remains a tool to assist and support human educators rather than replace them entirely?
How might the increasing use of AI in education impact future job prospects and skill requirements for students?
If an AI system generates essays or answers to assignments, would that be considered cheating?
Is it cheating to use an AI system that solves an entire problem or task for you, versus using it as a tool to help guide your thinking?
f some students have access to advanced AI tools and others do not, could that create an unfair advantage or disadvantage?
