AI Engagement Methodology for Migrant Education – an Overview
Building on the literature review and field work research recently undertaken by the AI Cookbook project, we are now working on an engagement methodology for AI in migrant education.
The AI Engagement Methodology for Migrant Education will present an approach to integrating Artificial Intelligence technologies into educational programs supporting migrant and refugee learners. This methodology emerges from the recognition that migrant learners face unique challenges that require specialised, culturally sensitive, and ethically grounded educational interventions enhanced by AI technologies.
Developed within the framework of the EU Erasmus+ funded AI Cookbook project, this methodology addresses the critical gap between the rapid advancement of AI technologies and their responsible, effective implementation in migrant education contexts. The methodology is grounded in international frameworks established by UNESCO and the Council of Europe, ensuring alignment with human rights principles, democratic values, and educational equity standards.
The methodology will provide a structured, step-by-step approach for educators, non-governmental organisations, and community groups to introduce AI tools and applications into migrant education programs. It emphasises ethical considerations, cultural sensitivity, and the empowerment of both educators and learners while maintaining human agency and dignity at the centre of all AI-enhanced educational activities.
