Colleges of Education call for National AI Policy and digital resources for teachers

National President of the Conference of Principals of Colleges of Education (PRINCOF), Professor Samuel Awinkene Atintono, said differing views among students and teachers over the appropriate use of AI made a policy framework necessary.

Principals of colleges of education are calling for a clear national policy on the use of Artificial Intelligence (AI) in teacher education, warning that students are increasingly adopting the technology faster than institutions can develop appropriate guidelines.

National President of the Colleges of Education Teachers Association of Ghana (CETAG), Mr Maxwell Bunu, said teachers must have access to the necessary technology if AI is to become part of the teaching and learning process.
