Using Conversational AI to Foster AI Literacy in Secondary Education

Artificial Intelligence (AI) is rapidly becoming essential in different working fields and in our daily lives. The renewed interest in AI sparked a discussion on the importance of teaching AI concepts and computational skills to young people, including whether professionals should introduce AI at K-12 level through Computer Science (CS) education. In this paper, we conducted an experiment for analyzing how AI can help students in searching for information, by comparing AI and traditional web searching, for determining how AI is changing learning approaches.
