About
The Comix4AI project aims to create a new path for Artificial Intelligence in secondary schools. To enhance secondary school teachers’ and students’ knowledge, competencies and skills in AI, promote digital transformation through interdisciplinarity and inclusive education practices. This will help to combat low student achievement by creating educational materials that can be used by all students to understand AI in the form of digital comics, and encourage STEM-oriented career pathways.
Our Vision
We envision a world where every secondary school student has the knowledge, skills, and confidence to navigate the evolving landscape of AI and ML. By fostering an environment of digital literacy and critical thinking, Comix4AI aims to prepare the next generation for the challenges and opportunities of the digital age.
Objectives
To embed AI literacy in secondary school curricula through digital comics.
To promote digital skills and computational thinking among educators & students.
To support educators with ready-made, easily integrable educational materials.
To foster a cross-disciplinary approach, linking AI with subjects like Computer Science, Engineering, Physics, and Chemistry.
Why Comix4AI?
Artificial Intelligence is rapidly transforming the world we live in, making it crucial for education systems to equip students with a solid understanding of AI concepts. However, traditional teaching methods can sometimes fail to capture students’ interest or adequately address the complexity of AI. Comix4AI seeks to bridge this gap by:
