The Minister of Education, Dr Tunji Alausa, has expressed the ministry’s readiness to harness the potential of AI to augment teaching and learning, while safeguarding the unique qualities of humans.
Alausa spoke during a ministerial press briefing to commemorate the International Day of Education in Abuja on Friday.
The International Day of Education was proclaimed by the United Nations in 2018, and it acknowledges the crucial role of education in promoting peace, development, and human rights worldwide.
The theme for the 2025 commemoration is: “AI and Education: Preserving Human Agency in a World of Automation”.
Represented by Dr Ejeh Usman, Director of Polytechnics in the ministry, Alausa promised to incorporate AI education into curricula by focusing on its potential, limitations, and ethical implications.
It is crucial that we prioritise human agency in education.
“We must ensure that AI enhances, rather than replaces, educators’ vital role in shaping young minds.
