Description¶

The review recommends that instruction for improving AI literacy incorporate collaborative learning activities so learners can co-create knowledge contextualized to their needs, with activities targeting literacy, specific use-case knowledge, or domain knowledge depending on instructional goals. It advises that "The modality of the activity is an essential consideration for educators developing AI literacy programs," and that special attention be given to how learners contextualize AI in their micro and macro decision-making. It may also be necessary to integrate CL with other activities and assessments to enhance comprehension and engagement.

Design Implications¶

Context¶

Requirements¶

• Educators must consider the goals of instruction and how learners contextualize AI in micro and macro decision-making

Constraints¶

• It may be necessary to integrate CL with other activities and assessments to enhance comprehension and engagement

Target Learners¶

• learners in AI literacy programs across ages and settings

Target Learning Goals¶

• AI literacy
• contextualized AI decision-making
• domain and use-case knowledge

Affordances¶

• Icap Framework Learning Modes

Related Strategies¶

• Embed AI literacy across disciplines by identifying intersections with existing content and using case studies, interdisciplinary modules, and collaborative projects
• Embed AI as a learning partner and redesign assessments for AI-rich contexts
• Engage students in active learning assignments using generative AI with structured reflection and critique of AI outputs
• Embed GenAI literacy and ethical use directly in nursing curricula rather than prohibiting it
• Embed GenAI into existing pedagogical strategies instead of undertaking full curriculum redesign
• Institutional AI initiatives should incorporate discussion, reflection, and distributed discipline-specific support networks rather than centralized information provision
