Brent A. Anders reflects on leading AI literacy workshops for university professors, future English teachers and school educators in Turkmenistan. He found that their questions about AI closely matched those he hears elsewhere, including concerns about job readiness, responsible use and how education should respond.
Brent A. Anders organizes AI literacy around awareness, human and AI capabilities, practical knowledge and critical thinking. He argues that teachers need concrete examples rather than abstract advice, such as using well-structured prompts to design active-listening exercises and other hands-on classroom activities.
Brent A. Anders emphasizes that learners must question AI outputs for hallucinations, bias and over-reliance. He also argues that AI does not replace sound pedagogy: experiential learning, project work, participation and foundational knowledge remain essential while assignments and assessments adapt to widely available AI tools.
