Pedagogical Perspectives on AI and Education


The course aims to address pedagogical perspectives on artificial intelligence (AI) and its relevance för learning and development.

The use of AI in different educational contexts is analysed and problematised. Pedagogical, ethical and practical challenges are highlighted, as well as strategies to handle them. During the course, current research on AI and its applications in education is processed.

The course is delivered entirely online, with scheduled sessions held via Zoom.
