Approach across school stages
At this stage CT skills are furthered to the advanced level and introduction to foundational understanding
of AI will be done.
The best approach is to have a combination of CT worksheets along with an introduction to basic AI theory,
and interdisciplinary projects that combine both CT and AI in the middle school stage.
Use additional materials, such as worksheets, and teacher and student handbooks to integrate Computational
Thinking (CT) with other subjects. Include more challenging questions than those in Class 3–5.
Teaching students the fundamentals of artificial intelligence with relatable real-world examples will help
them understand AI's role in society.
Using project-based learning with AI tools, basic data analysis, and Computational Thinking will help
students create solutions to real-world issues.
Introducing conversations about digital footprints, bias, privacy, and fairness in AI systems to cultivate
conscientious, ethical, and thoughtful digital citizens.
Encourage critical thinking, creativity, and curiosity through experiential, inquiry-based learning
opportunities.
