AI Literacy in K-12 and Higher Education in the Wake of Generative AI: An Integrative Review

arXiv.org Artificial Intelligence

Accordingly, education researchers and practitioners have increasingly turned to AI literacy as an important learning objective. However, the definition of AI literacy remains vague. Researchers have used the term to describe learning interventions that differ by in school contexts, learning objectives, and types of AI technologies they use. Furthermore, the research of AI literacy is shifting significantly in the wake of generative AI. Thus, it is crucial to review the field and develop a conceptual framework that captures the diverse conceptualizations of AI literacy. The concept of AI literacy and recognition of its potential significance are well-established [75, 127]. One of the pioneering works by Touretzky et al. in 2019 laid out "five big ideas" for the AI4K12 initiative: "computers perceive the world using sensors", "agents maintain models/representations of the world and use them for reasoning", "computers can learn from data", "making agents interact with humans is a substantial challenge for AI developers", and "AI applications can impact society in both positive and negative ways" [127]. This paper had a major influence on subsequent AI literacy curriculum design. The next year, another prominent work by Long and Magerko defined AI literacy as "a set


LLM-Assisted Knowledge Graph Completion for Curriculum and Domain Modelling in Personalized Higher Education Recommendations

arXiv.org Artificial Intelligence

While learning personalization offers great potential for learners, modern practices in higher education require a deeper consideration of domain models and learning contexts, to develop effective personalization algorithms. This paper introduces an innovative approach to higher education curriculum modelling that utilizes large language models (LLMs) for knowledge graph (KG) completion, with the goal of creating personalized learning-path recommendations. Our research focuses on modelling university subjects and linking their topics to corresponding domain models, enabling the integration of learning modules from different faculties and institutions in the student's learning path. Central to our approach is a collaborative process, where LLMs assist human experts in extracting high-quality, fine-grained topics from lecture materials. We develop a domain, curriculum, and user models for university modules and stakeholders. We implement this model to create the KG from two study modules: Embedded Systems and Development of Embedded Systems Using FPGA. The resulting KG structures the curriculum and links it to the domain models. We evaluate our approach through qualitative expert feedback and quantitative graph quality metrics. Domain experts validated the relevance and accuracy of the model, while the graph quality metrics measured the structural properties of our KG. Our results show that the LLM-assisted graph completion approach enhances the ability to connect related courses across disciplines to personalize the learning experience. Expert feedback also showed high acceptance of the proposed collaborative approach for concept extraction and classification.
