Artificial intelligence courses are compulsory for all information technology teachers in Haidian District, Beijing. Recently, the district has established a studio for famous teachers of artificial intelligence education in primary and secondary schools, which will systematically improve teachers' artificial intelligence literacy through long-term training courses and promote the application of artificial intelligence in primary and secondary education.
Relying on the famous teacher studio, Haidian District will carry out a series of trainings to improve the application ability of artificial intelligence education and teaching for primary and secondary school teachers. The studio will take the lead in launching a four-semester training course for primary school information teachers to guide them in learning and mastering basic theories, algorithm applications, software and hardware technologies related to artificial intelligence, and then effectively integrate them into daily teaching and develop students' Vision and thinking.
“Carrying out artificial intelligence education at the primary school level not only allows students to be exposed to cutting-edge technology in advance, but more importantly, guides students to deeply understand the nature of artificial intelligence, cultivates students’ ability to think independently, discover and solve problems, and contributes to cultivating future technological innovators. Good preparation." As the host of the Famous Teacher Studio, Hao Shipei, a teacher at Zhongguancun No. 3 Primary School in Haidian District, said that the training courses cover expert lectures, classroom discussions, and case studies. Teachers will complete "after-class assignments" in stages, including designing a primary school artificial intelligence algorithm class, carrying out an artificial intelligence teaching application project, taking an artificial intelligence interdisciplinary research class, and publishing research results on related topics.
The training results of the famous teacher studio will be gradually implemented. While information teachers design courses for this subject, they will also lead teachers from other subjects to conduct in-depth research on innovative paths for artificial intelligence-empowered subject teaching, carry out interdisciplinary practices, and promote the formation of an innovative network of artificial-empowered education and teaching in each school, leading and supporting More teachers should do a good job in artificial intelligence education.
Liu Wei, director of the Smart Education Office of the Haidian District Education Commission, said that the district has launched a work plan for the construction of an "artificial intelligence + education" service system to systematically improve the artificial intelligence literacy of primary and secondary school teachers and promote the application and implementation of a series of "artificial intelligence + education" scenarios. , carry out in-depth research and exploration in the fields of artificial intelligence-enabled homework correction, English listening and speaking training, sports monitoring and other fields.
