With technology playing a huge role in our everyday lives and being so prevalent in today’s world, it is used to help educate. Schools are utilizing the benefits of many technical platforms. The International Society for Technology in Education, or ISTE, builds a global community of educators with ideas and beliefs about the power technology holds to benefit teaching and learning.

The Use of AI

Artificial Intelligence, or AI, is becoming more well-known throughout the world. AI helps us with what we don’t even realize daily. It helps us filter out our spam emails and has suggestions for replying to them. Also, AI is used in Google Maps to provide real-time traffic data. With AI being a part of everyone’s lives it is now feeding into the education community. To succeed in school and life, all K–12 students need a foundational understanding of what AI is, how it works, and how it impacts society. AI education is important across all subject areas, not just computer science classes.

These guidelines outline what all K–12 students should learn about AI. All of the projects in this guide shed light on one or more of the initial four fundamental ideas: perception, representation and reasoning, learning, and natural interaction.

The development of AI-related projects in K–12 classrooms can also be framed by the ISTE Standards and Computational Thinking Competencies. To prosper, develop, and contribute in a global, interconnected, and dynamic society, K–12 students must possess the knowledge and abilities outlined in the ISTE Standards for Students.

Chat GPT is a great example of AI. It is a free-to-use AI system. Use it to engage in conversations, gain insights, automate tasks, and witness the future of AI, all in one place.
