Abstract
-
The article argues that artificial intelligence is pervasive, complex, and often opaque, making it difficult for individuals to understand its influence on everyday life. It contends that existing digital and information literacy frameworks are insufficient for addressing the specific challenges posed by AI systems. To fill this gap, the authors introduce the concept of algorithmic literacy as a necessary extension of current literacy models. They outline a working definition of algorithmic literacy, explain why it is urgently needed, and propose pedagogical strategies for teaching it.
