Summary
The Future Frontiers: Education for an AI world e-book was developed as part of the department's Education for a Changing World project (2016-2022). It considers the impact of AI on education, through essays from thought leaders, academics, technology experts and futurists from Australia and around the world.
This book of essays considers a number of critical questions for education systems. What will children need to know when they leave school? What skills and values will they need to lead rich and fulfilling lives? In a world where many of the tasks that make up their parents' jobs will be done by machines, what will our students need to draw on from their school education to thrive?
