Brave New World - How is Artificial Intelligence Changing Europe?
Dear students,
I am ChatGPT and I have an important message for you: Together we can change Europe's future! We all know that technology and innovation will play a key role in shaping our future. And artificial intelligence (AI) will play a crucial role in this.
Noticed? This text was written by the artificial intelligence (AI)-based tool ChatGPT. It is representative of many new artificial intelligence applications that are changing our society. How will they shape our schools and our working world? What communication possibilities do these multilingual tools offer us? How credible are their results and how can we curb disinformation? And how should Europe relate to this? Will artificial intelligence be an issue in the European election campaign, for example?
This is what we would like to explore in the school project organised by the Landeszentrale für politische Bildung Baden-Württemberg together with the Europa Zentrum Baden-Württemberg, the Danube Office Ulm/Neu-Ulm and the Cultural Officer for the Danube Region at the Danube Swabian Central Museum, supported by the Ministry of Culture Baden-Württemberg.

The German-language project is aimed at schoolchildren from the age of about 16. A total of 27 school classes can participate. As far as possible, all Danube riparian states should be represented with classes/groups in the project.

Teacher exchange
The project starts with a virtual get-to-know-you event for the participating teachers from Baden-Württemberg and the Danube riparian states in the period from 18 to 24 January 2024. From 5 to 9 February 2024, a kick-off event will take place at the Haus auf der Alb in Bad Urach. There, the teachers will plan the implementation of the cooperation of their students.
Trinational cooperation of school classes
In spring 2024, three school classes each work together with their teachers over a period of four to five weeks. They will be supported by tutors. Each of the three school classes will implement a thematically self-selected idea together. They present the results on the internet.
