Kravtsov: the main challenge of SI in schools is preserving children's independent thinking; a course on SI and information security will start in the second quarter

SI is coming to schools as a subject and a tool: children will be taught to work with it rather than hide from it.

The Minister of Education proposes teaching schoolchildren not to get a ready-made answer but to explore the material together with SI, and to assess not only the result but also the train of reasoning. Materials created with the help of SI must be checked by a teacher before being used in lessons. The new subject "Artificial Intelligence and Information Security" will begin in the second quarter of the school year.
