Project description:

AI-Cosmic is an innovative educational initiative designed to familiarize primary school children with the five big ideas in artificial intelligence (AI) through engaging, gamified learning activities. The program also introduces basic coding skills tailored to their knowledge and educational level. By promoting coding and AI in schools, the project aims to:

 
  • Enhance teachers’ digital skills.
  • Enrich STEM education by offering diverse and captivating learning opportunities.
  • Inspire young learners to explore programming careers, helping to address the EU job market’s skills gap.
 

Following comprehensive research, the partnership will conceive, design, develop, test, implement, and disseminate a holistic educational course. This course will be supported by advanced digital tools and resources, focusing on AI principles and coding. The content will be delivered through relatable, scenario-based learning experiences.

 

To ensure its success, the project will involve a collaborative effort from designers, programmers, and educators. Their expertise, feedback, and insights will shape the course’s development, refining it through multiple testing cycles to ensure it is both effective and engaging for young learners.

 

Project results:

  • AI-Cosmic Guide: A practical manual designed to support teachers in introducing coding to their students, providing clear and accessible guidelines and teaching strategies.
  • AI-Cosmicon: An immersive experience using Minecraft, which simplified complex coding concepts through gameplay, offering a fun and practical approach for students.
  • Virtual Community: An online platform that promoted the continuity of the project results, facilitating collaboration between teachers and students, and encouraging constructive discussions in the fields of AI, coding, ICT and STEM.
