Unesco - Integrating AI into TVET

 Following on the heels from a recently released OECD report  on developing VET with AI, is the UNESCO work on integrating AI into TVET. This is a useful guide of institutions.

The guide hinges on: Human-centredness; equity, inclusion and non-discrimination, pedagogical purposedfulness; transparency, accountability and data protection; safety, sustainability and resilience; and critical engagement with AI. 

A relatively short report (just under 100 pages) but with good generalisable recommendations which are provided for policy makers, institutions, and teachers and trainers. There is a strong direction to ensure teacher professional development are provisioned, along with ensuring the voice of teachers is heard and taken into account. 

The annexes provide 'check-lists' for AI self-reflection and planning; AI risk register; and indicator framework to monitor and evaluate AI integration into TVET.
