论文摘要
随着孩子每天与智能扬声器，智能手机甚至智能微酒的交谈，对这些代理人如何从基本机制开始对社会含义的基本机制进行教育越来越重要。研究人员正在开发工具和课程，以广泛地教K-12学生有关人工智能（AI）；但是，很少有研究评估了这些有关AI特异性学习成果的工具，甚至更少的人对基于AI的对话剂进行了学习。我们评估了MIT应用程序发明家和研讨会课程的对话代理界面，相对于文献中的八种AI能力。此外，我们分析了与界面的研讨会的老师（n = 9）和学生（n = 47）的反馈，并建议未来的工作利用文献中的设计注意事项以优化参与度，与老师合作，并通过提起和扩展的机会来解决一系列学生的能力。我们发现学生在AI伦理学和学习的概念上苦苦挣扎，并建议在教学时强调这些主题。 附录，包括演示视频，可以在此处找到：https：//gist.github.com/jessvb/1cd959e32415a6ad4389761c49b54bbbf
With children talking to smart-speakers, smart-phones and even smart-microwaves daily, it is increasingly important to educate students on how these agents work-from underlying mechanisms to societal implications. Researchers are developing tools and curriculum to teach K-12 students broadly about artificial intelligence (AI); however, few studies have evaluated these tools with respect to AI-specific learning outcomes, and even fewer have addressed student learning about AI-based conversational agents. We evaluate our Conversational Agent Interface for MIT App Inventor and workshop curriculum with respect to eight AI competencies from the literature. Furthermore, we analyze teacher (n=9) and student (n=47) feedback from workshops with the interface and recommend that future work leverages design considerations from the literature to optimize engagement, collaborates with teachers, and addresses a range of student abilities through pacing and opportunities for extension. We found students struggled most with the concepts of AI ethics and learning, and recommend emphasizing these topics when teaching.
