Awareness Raising Session Ethics of AI and Data within Practices: Learners and Future Academic Teachers' Perspective. Case Report: Italy (II)

This record presents a report on the Second Awareness Raising Session developed within the WP2 of the ETH-TECH project in Italy. The report outlines an online workshop involving students and practitioners from Italian Universities and different professional backgrounds. The session followed an open, workshop-style format: participants were divided into three groups to analyze ethical cases related to the use of AI in education. After the group work, a final plenary discussion was held, facilitated by the three moderators. Participants were encouraged to reflect on their own use of AI and the emotions it often arouses. Through cross-group ethical reflection based on concrete cases and open dialogue, the session explored various dimensions of ethics and allowed for reflection on concrete ethical proposals and solutions. The ARS highlighted key ethical challenges and curiosities related to the use of AI in education. More importantly, however, it has raised doubts regarding the participants’ level of prior experience. Before being able to engage in a deeper discussion on the ethics of AI, a solid foundation of knowledge of ethics and ethical approaches is needed.
