Beschreibung
The Teacher-AI Complementarity (TAICo) project will explore the role of Artificial Intelligence (AI) in complementing teachers' skills across various educational contexts. With the increasing presence of AI technologies in education, it is critical to understand how AI can support rather than replace the human element in teaching, particularly in the development of essential skills such as problem-solving, collaboration, and self-regulation. Funded by the EU Horizon program, this initiative spans six countries: Austria, Estonia, Finland, Germany, the Netherlands, and the UK.
TAICo will engage directly with practitioners across primary, secondary, higher education, and continuing education sectors. The project focuses on how AI technologies can align with human teaching tasks, augmenting teachers' strengths while maintaining their critical role in the learning process. The project's goal is to provide evidence-based guidelines for integrating AI tools into classrooms, ensuring they effectively support teaching practices. TAICo’s participatory approach, involving teachers, policymakers, and EdTech developers, will ensure that AI solutions are both practical and ethically sound, meeting the evolving needs of modern educational environments.
The University of Continuing Education Krems is the coordinator of this project and will also play a pivotal role in research focusing on the context of continuing education and aiming to provide crucial insights into teacher training and EdTech development. UWK will lead efforts to design professional learning programs that equip teachers with AI-related skills, supporting their ability to use AI as a pedagogical tool. Furthermore, UWK will contribute to policy dialogues, ensuring that findings influence the development of European educational standards and policies.
