AI Education and Learning should:
Be human-centered.
Learning experiences should strengthen human judgment, creativity, agency, relationships, collaboration, and well-being rather than simply promoting the use of AI tools.Be active and applied.
Students should learn through experimentation, discovery, creation, collaboration, and authentic problem solving connected to real-world contexts. Learning experiences should include productive struggle, iteration, and reflection.
Be relevant across disciplines.
Students should explore how AI affects the methods, values, opportunities, practices, and responsibilities of their fields of study.
Integrate ethics with practice.
Questions of fairness, privacy, authorship, labor, sustainability, accessibility, and social impact should be embedded throughout learning activities. Educational experiences should establish clear expectations for disclosure, attribution, and privacy.Help prepare students for the workplace.
Students should develop the judgment and practical skills needed to use AI effectively in professional settings. Online student portfolios should produce meaningful evidence of not only polished outcomes, but each student’s role in the creation process through problem framing, iteration, and evaluation. Portfolios should help students communicate their capabilities during career explorations.
