As AI becomes more embedded in learning, work, and society, education systems are considering how to support AI literacy in ways that are coherent, inclusive, and adaptable to different contexts.
The AILit Framework for primary and secondary education is now available, offering a shared, international approach to AI literacy. A joint initiative of the European Commission and the OECD, developed with support from CodeAI (formerly Code.org), and leading international experts, the Framework defines the competences students need to thrive in a world influenced by AI.
Following the launch of the AILit Framework, the AI Literacy in Education: System-Level Perspectives and Priorities webinar helped participants explore how the Framework can support system-level priorities for AI literacy in education. The webinar focused on shared language, policy and strategy discussions, system support, and planning across education systems where relevant.
The webinar was intended for policymakers, including representatives of ministries of education, instructional design organisations, EdTech organisations, and others working at the system level.
The session featured members of the AI Literacy expert group sharing perspectives from their own work and contributions to the Framework. It included a presentation of the AILit Framework, short speaker presentations, a panel discussion, and audience Q&A.
Participants came away with a clearer understanding of how the AILit Framework can support system-level priorities, policy and strategy discussions, and planning across education systems.
