A High School Student's Perspective On An AI-Powered Future

Claire.PNG

To share and spread our ideas and promote AI literacy in youth across Canada, Claire hopes that together, youth and adults, we can all do more to solve the issue of AI literacy education for our youth! We need to open AI fundamental courses in public high schools, develop a widely accepted online AI learning platform specifically for high school students, and provide more AI hands-on learning opportunities. 

AI4Youth Canada did an on-site survey among 47 high school and university students. Here are the AI Literacy Survey Results: 

​​

98%
