Teaching AI Literacy in diverse Classrooms
By Ans De Nolf 2026/05/15 Over the past few months, our AI literacy lesson travelled across 18 classrooms in a Belgian bridging programme for newly arrived non-Dutch-speaking students (OKAN). These students are still learning the language while simultaneously finding their way in a new school system, and often a new life. This makes the classroom a uniquely dynamic space, where language learning, adaptation, and digital practices intersect, and where questions of AI literacy

How do older people learn to use artificial intelligence? Reflections following a series of training sessions in small towns
By Łukasz Tomczyk 2026/05/14 And now a few words about the training sessions led by professional trainers in the Małopolska Province. By way of introduction, it should be emphasised that the training programme implemented as part of the Polish edition of PRODIGI with senior citizens comprised seven sessions, each lasting two hours.

The importance of intergenerational digital education in the field of AI
By Łukasz Tomczyk As part of the PRODIGI project, the Polish team organised training not only for older people from small towns, but also facilitated intergenerational interactions.

Between competence and uncertainty: students' [pre-service teachers] concerns about digital inclusion classes with older adults
By Łukasz Tomczyk 2026/03/09 The text we are presenting to our readers stems from the next stage of work on the PRODIGI project and is, in a sense, a record of the transition between stages, i.e. from planning to actual preparation for meeting the participants. At this stage, students preparing for their future roles as teachers developed a detailed programme of classes for older adults on the use of artificial intelligence tools based on a relational model of digital compete

By Łukasz Tomczyk 2026/02/12 The next step in training future trainers (currently pre-service teachers) focused on how students participating in the PRODIGI project conceptualise the opportunities and risks of teaching seniors to use AI tools and what teaching mechanisms they identify as a way of incorporating them into the course. The collected material forms a coherent set of categories that correspond to the logic of didactic (geragogical) design based on usability, access

Blended AI Skills: Shaping PRODIGI’s youth AI Literacy Scale (yAILS)
By Leen d'Haenens 2026/01/12 A 16-year-old in Flanders might use an AI chatbot to finish homework, yet struggle to explain what an algorithm actually does. This gap between routine use and real understanding of artificial intelligence is what the PRODIGI project set out to explore. In a recent pilot survey of 1,200 young people in Flanders, Belgium, we tested a newly developed youth AI Literacy Scale (yAILS), revealing that teens tend to blend technical, creative, and ethical
