About the platform

About AI Literacy Quest

AI Literacy Quest is a gamified learning journey designed to help students and teachers understand, use, and create with artificial intelligence in responsible and meaningful ways.

Instead of learning AI through traditional lessons only, users complete missions, unlock badges, earn XP points, and work towards certificates. Each quest focuses on an important area of AI in education, including AI competency, prompting, ethics, learning design, and innovation.

The platform is built around the tagline:

Learn AI. Use AI responsibly. Design AI for better education.

Purpose of AI Literacy Quest

The main purpose of this quest is to develop AI literacy among students and teachers. Learners not only understand what AI is, but also how to use AI critically, ethically, and creatively in education.

The quest helps learners answer important questions such as:

What is AI and how does it work?

How can AI support teaching and learning?

How can students and teachers use AI responsibly?

What are the risks of AI, such as bias, privacy issues, and misinformation?

How can we design AI solutions that improve education?

Main Quest

UNESCO AI Competency Quest

The first major quest helps students and teachers build AI competencies through missions inspired by UNESCO's AI competency frameworks. It focuses on responsible AI use, ethical awareness, AI knowledge, teaching and learning practices, and human-centred innovation.
