AIEdu is a one-year European research project funded by the Civic Innovation Fund and implemented by the National Centre for Scientific Research ‘Demokritos’ (NCSR-D) in collaboration with the European Wergeland Center (EWC).  

AIEdu project is addressed to educators of formal and non-formal education and aims to encourage the development of new approaches and teaching practices in the field of citizenship education by focusing on the impact of AI in society. The project activities will be designed based on the digital citizenship education model, developed by the Council of Europe, as well as the Council of Europe’s Reference Framework of Competences for Democratic Culture to support educators to become better aware of the responsible and respectful ways to use AI as part of their work. Upon completion of the project, educators will learn how to support the development of the students’ digital skills and AI competencies in order to protect and promote human rights and inclusion in the digital era.  

In phase 1 of the research, the project seeks to understand educators’ familiarity with AI and its potential use in their classrooms, as well as to highlight benefits, challenges and good practices. Therefore, between May and mid-June 2024, an online questionnaire will be distributed to educators. Some of the participants, if they wish, could be invited to participate later in a focus group to explore these dimensions in more depth.  

In phase 2, a series of webinars (3 in total) in the field of AI & Education will be offered online in the autumn 2024 (September-November 2024) in English, addressed to educators who are interested. Upon successful completion of the 3 webinars, participants will be issued a certificate of participation. Registration is required and you will be notified accordingly. 

If you wish to participate in any or all of our project’s activities, as well as to be informed about our news, we would be very happy to receive your registration at the following link and we will contact you!
