新时代我国中小学人工智能教育的体系化建设

On the Systematic Construction of Artificial Intelligence Education in Chinese Primary and Middle Schools in the New Era

人工智能对人类社会的发展愈发重要,人工智能教育已然成为全球教育的热点话题,也是我国基础教育改革的重要内容。就当下而言,我国中小学人工智能教育有两个核心任务,一是努力在全国范围内逐步普及人工智能教育,实现量的扩张;二是不断提高中小学生的人工智能素养,达到质的提升。要实现两大任务仍然面临诸多挑战,包括定位不明确、师资不匹配、教材质量低、课程不完善和工具难普及等五大现实问题。为此,需要分别采取针对性的措施。

As Artificial intelligence(AI) gets more important to the development of human society, AI education has become a hot topic in global education and an important part of China’s basic education reform. Up to now, there are two core goals in AI education in primary and middle schools in our country. One is to gradually popularize AI education nationwide to realize its quantitative expansion. The other is to continuously promote the AI literacy of primary and middle school students to achieve its qualitative improvement. To reach the above two goals, five realistic problems should be addressed, such as unclear goals of AI education, mismatched teachers, teaching material of low quality and AI education tools too difficult to popularize. Therefore, individualized measures need be taken to approach these problems.
