Education for digital transformation

Abstract

ArtificialFollowing intelligencerecent reforms, Computer Science education in the elementary school curriculum in the Republic of Croatia has been radically reduced in terms of teaching hours. On the other hand, awareness of the importance of digital technologies today results in significant investments in equipping schools with information and communication technologies (AI)ICT). Digital literacy is becoming increasingly presentimperative in all areas and subjects of life.elementary Previousschool researcheducation. hasIn mostlythis focusedcontext, reducing the digital divide is important due to unequal access to digital technologies and knowledge sources. Students who have limited access to resources cannot have the same opportunities in the educational process.

The aim of this paper is to investigate the differences in available resources for the implementation of Computer Science courses in primary schools. For the purpose of the research, the attitudes and opinions of primary school teachers in the City of Zagreb were examined using a questionnaire. Attitudes towards digital tools and technologies in relation to available ICT resources and their use in Computer Science courses are examined. The paper presents an analysis of the application of available digital tools, technologies and content, and their impact on the use of AI from the perspective of students, with almost no research on the attitudes of students - future teachers towards AI. This paper aims to create a shortened versionquality of the originalteaching questionnaire that would make it easier to investigate teachers' attitudes towards artificial intelligence in the future. A study was conducted on a sample of 276 students from the Faculties of Humanities and Social Sciences in Osijek and Rijeka, and the Faculty of Teacher Education University of Zagreb, using the SATAI questionnaire. The results indicate that the shortened form of the questionnaire correlates very well with the subscales within the attitudes of the respondents towards AI in education compared to the longer version. The research conclusion supports the validity of the shorter form of the questionnaire, whose validity is the same compared to the longer version with half the number of items. Accordingly, teachers can use it to investigate attitudes related to new AI educational methods.process.

Odgoj i obrazovanje za digitalnu transformaciju

Sažetak 

UmjetnaNastava inteligencijapredmeta sveInformatika u kurikulumu osnovne škole u Republici Hrvatskoj je prisutnijapo najnovijoj reformi radikalno smanjena po broju sati. S druge strane svijest o važnosti digitalnih tehnologija u današnjem društvu rezultira značajnim ulaganjima u opremljenost škola informacijsko – komunikacijskim tehnologijama (IKT). Digitalna pismenost pritom postaje imperativom u svim područjima života.i Dosadašnjapredmetima osnovnoškolskog obrazovanja. U tom svjetlu je važno smanjiti digitalnu podjelu uslijed nejednakog pristupa digitalnim tehnologijama i izvorima znanja. Učenici koji imaju ograničen pristup resursima nemaju iste mogućnosti u obrazovnom procesu.

Cilj ovog rada je istražiti razlike u dostupnim resursima za provedbu nastave informatike u osnovnim školama.  U svrhu istraživanja uglavnomanketnim upitnikom su bilaispitani usmjerenastavovi i mišljenja učitelja osnovnih škola na korištenjepodručju umjetneGrada inteligencijeZagreba (AI)u izvezi perspektivedostupnih učenika,digitalnih aalata gotovoi datehnologija nete postojenjihovoj istraživanja o stavovima studenata - budućih nastavnika prema AI.
