The UAE Cabinet has approved implementation of an artificial intelligence curriculum across all public and private schools. The curriculum will teach students about AI data, algorithms, applications and risks, while building awareness of the ethical use of the technology. About 22,000 teachers and educators will be trained to use AI to support teaching, assessment, curriculum analysis and lesson planning. A pilot programme and evaluation of the AI curriculum had already produced positive results in public schools. The Cabinet also approved a mechanism to make the UAE's AI curriculum and its components available to education ministries and the international education community. The curriculum is aimed at equipping future generations with the AI skills and knowledge required for the future, while ensuring students understand both the opportunities and risks associated with the technology.
