Goce Delchev University, in collaboration with the Ministry of Education and Science, has developed the first Artificial Intelligence (AI) Guide.
The Guide was promoted today at the Ministry of Education and Science, a document that aims to facilitate the application of new technologies in the teaching process and to offer guidelines for their safe and ethical use.
The Minister of Education and Science, Vesna Janevska, stressed that the introduction of artificial intelligence in schools is “a completely logical and necessary step in the process of digital transformation of education”. She emphasized that the guide is prepared on 120 pages and offers a broad overview of the history, concepts and most famous tools for the application of artificial intelligence in various teaching areas – from mathematics and natural sciences, to languages, literature and social sciences.
A large part of this Guide is dedicated to students. It provides practical guidance on how to recognize and evaluate AI-based tools, how to create educational content in an efficient and effective manner. Specific examples of the use of AI-based tools in teaching subjects from mathematics and natural sciences, through languages and literature, to social sciences are given. A comprehensive overview of more than 70 different tools that can be used in an educational context is also provided.
The Dean of the Faculty of Informatics at the University of Georgia, Prof. Dr. Sasho Koceski, emphasizes that the topic is dynamic and constantly changing, so the guide should be regularly updated:
“Education is the best prevention. It is best to educate children, but also teachers, because they already have access to artificial intelligence.”
The “Guide to Artificial Intelligence” was developed on a voluntary basis, within the framework of a Memorandum of Cooperation between the University “Goce Delchev” – Shtip and the Ministry of Education and Science. It is a popular read, written in a language understandable to a wider audience, but based on strategic documents of the European Commission and more than a hundred relevant scientific papers.
The document contains examples of the use of AI-based tools in teaching, practical guidelines for students, an overview of more than 70 different tools, as well as reflection questions that help readers think about the broader implications of new technologies.
The promotion also begins the process of training for teachers, which will first involve secondary schools, in cooperation with the Brainster group.
