Digital Transformation: Artificial Intelligence and Coding Learning Planning for Indonesian Elementary School Children 2024
Abstract
The rapid advancement of technology necessitates early education on digital skills to prepare future generations for the challenges of the 21st century. This initiative focuses on integrating Artificial Intelligence (AI) and coding into the elementary school curriculum in Indonesia, starting in 2024. The program aims to equip students with foundational digital literacy, critical thinking, and problem-solving skills through interactive and age-appropriate learning methods. By combining theoretical knowledge and practical applications, this initiative seeks to foster innovation, creativity, and adaptability among young learners. The project also includes training for educators, development of localized educational resources, and collaboration with technology partners to ensure effective implementation. This paper outlines the strategic planning, curriculum design, and expected outcomes of this transformative educational initiative.
