A critical, evidence-first plan for teaching students how AI works, how to use it and when to question it
Students now grow up with systems that can write, answer, advise and befriend them, and most meet those systems long before any school explains them. This collection helps school leaders and teachers decide what to teach about AI and how. It reviews what six national systems, the major competency frameworks and the early research have actually delivered, separating announcements from evidence. It then sets out eight content strands and turns them into a practical blueprint: a K–12 progression with a detailed middle-school core, assessment, teacher preparation, school policy, parent partnership and a minimum standard every student is owed.

“A sceptical, practical map of what schools should teach about AI.”
The collection reviews six national systems and three major frameworks on their record, gives uncomfortable research findings full weight, and then does the harder work of turning it all into a progression, a middle-school plan, assessment and policy. It is honest about thin evidence and respectful of real school constraints.
Global Competence Teachers is a LearningFirst editorial line for educators who treat their classroom craft as a serious professional discipline. The collections are written for teachers who want pedagogical depth — not pep talks, not buzzword tours, not certification exercises — and who care about the method as much as the message.

AI can think for you. The question is whether you still want to.
