Abstract

Context: This proposal is part of the European Erasmus+ project AIM@VET (Artificial Intelligence Modules for Vocational Education and Training), now in its third year. Our project focuses on developing AI curricula specifically designed for vocational education centers. However, recognizing the broader relevance and potential for wider impact, this special session aims to include contributions related to the development of AI curricula for all pre-university education settings.

Objectives:

  • Present experiences and methodologies in developing AI curricula for pre-university education.
  • Discuss lessons learned and best practices in the implementation of these curricula.
  • Disseminate the results of the AIM@VET project to date and increase its impact.
  • Explore various AI domains applied in education, such as robotics, computer vision, ambient intelligence, and more.
