The five elements of numeracy knowledge outlined in the 21st Century Model for Numeracy forms the bridge between a teacher's subject specific knowledge and pedagogical content knowledge within the N Framework. Here we explore how the five elements of numeracy knowledge can be applied across a range of subjects and used by teachers as a tool to exploit numeracy opportunities within their subject.

What is Artificial Intelligence?

Artificial Intelligence (AI) refers to the development of computer systems that can perform tasks that typically require human intelligence. It involves creating algorithms - a list of rules or steps - that are used by computers to analyse, understand, and respond to information.

While AI systems can process and analyse large amounts of data to recognise patterns and make predictions, they are not able to think and understand context like humans can.

AI has been around since the 1950s and has evolved over the decades, but has seen rapid and significant progress in recent years.

What is the impact?

AI has been an established part of day-to-day tasks for some time. Virtual assistants like Siri, Alexa, and Google Assistant use AI to understand and respond to our voice commands; AI algorithms power recommendation systems on platforms like Netflix, Amazon, and YouTube; Social media platforms use AI algorithms to curate your newsfeed, showing you content based on your interests, engagement, and connections; and mapping systems like Google Maps use AI to provide real time traffic updates.

AI is evolving quickly, with new advancements and applications being developed that have the potential to impact on our lives. This brings opportunities, but also concerns about how to safely and ethically navigate the online world.

AI in Education

Artificial Intelligence systems and tools are already part of our everyday lives. As AI continues to evolve, it is important to be aware of the benefits and the risks it can have in teaching and learning.

This technology has the potential to transform education, so it is important for educators and students to understand how to ethically, critically and positively engage with AI in order to make the most of its potential. It's important to note that AI can compliment, but not replace a teachers' expertise. The human element a teacher brings to the classroom will still be crucial to fostering meaningful learning experiences.

This short introductory course will provide teachers and school leaders with an understanding of what AI is and an overview of key policy documents relating to AI, including the latest European publications. It will also outline considerations for the ethical use of AI in a school setting.

# data[].attributes.attachment_link.readable_text
This is a highly interactive course with expert video inputs which provide insights into how schools are already engaging with AI and the wider context of AI developments. The course also signposts a wide range of further materials and resources on the topic of AI in education.

Specifically, the course contains expert contributions from the Adapt Centre and the AI4T project, as well as contributions from colleagues in Oide Technology in Education and resources on the safe use of AI from Webwise. Other key resources include the Teaching AI project from DCU's Insight Centre and the Centre for Data Analytics, Adapt Centre lessons for primary and post primary students, the EU Ethical Guidelines and UNESCO Guidance for Generative AI in Education and Research.

The course content will be added to regularly to reflect the latest developments in AI and relevant resources available for schools.

There are two modules in the course:

1. The Basics of AI

This module introduces and explains what AI is, including key terminology, such as Generative AI, made popular by such tools as ChatGPT, Co-Pilot and Gemini. It also provides the policy context for AI in education, highlighting relevant policies and guidelines.

2. AI Considerations for Schools

The second module explores the ethical considerations in the use of AI in a school setting, drawing on key documents, such as the EU Ethical Guidelines for Schools as well as UNESCO's Guidance for Generative AI in Education and Research. This module also provides a framework for planning for AI use in the context of the Digital Learning Plan.
