China wants its citizens to learn about artificial intelligence (AI). Technology has become more advanced globally. The country wants to prepare its workers for the future.
The national plan is called “AI+ Education”. It wants AI to be used in all types of learning. It will start from primary school.
Education leaders created this plan because they see fierce competition. Many other countries have programmes that focus on AI education and training.
In China, schools will offer classes that help students become curious about AI. Universities will offer beginner courses. Advanced programmes will focus on how smart technology can change everyday jobs.
Teachers’ training will also be improved. AI skills will be added to the list of things they must know before they are allowed to teach.
