AI IN TEACHING FOR A DIGITAL HUMANISM: ETHICAL CONDITIONS, CRITICAL TRAINING OF TEACHERS AND PRIMACY OF THE EDUCATIONAL RELATIONSHIP.
Abstract
Questo articolo, strutturato in quattro sezioni, delinea il funzionamento e i rischi dell'IA, propone un quadro di riferimento basato su principi per la formazione degli insegnanti (dall'alfabetizzazione tecnologica alla pratica riflessiva), promuove un modello di insegnamento centrato sulla persona e individua le qualità chiave degli insegnanti (speranza, resilienza, apertura mentale) che proteggono dal determinismo tecnologico. Lo studio conclude che l'integrazione etica dell'IA richiede una riconcettualizzazione degli insegnanti come intellettuali trasformativi e artigiani digitali.
