Summary
The Canadian Teachers’ Federation says Canada’s new National AI Literacy Initiative should address safety and learning risks before encouraging AI use in K–12 classrooms. The initiative, launched by Artificial Intelligence and Digital Innovation Minister Evan Solomon with the Alberta Machine Intelligence Institute, includes a teacher course and aims to reach 50,000 educators by 2031. The federation is asking the government and Amii to let educators review five chapters still in development and publish evaluations of the program’s impact.
