Around 60% of the educational community (6 out of 10 students and teachers) believe there is insufficient training on the proper use of Artificial Intelligence (AI) in schools.
This is one of the conclusions of the 6th edition of the study by Empantallados.com and GAD3, titled "Educating in the AI Era: 7 Essential Skills for a Changing Environment." The research is based on a survey of teenagers, teachers, and parents, representative of the Spanish population.
The study, presented this Wednesday in Madrid, also concludes that despite technological advances, 9 out of 10 teenagers consider direct interaction with teachers essential to their education; over 50% believe AI can be a good complement to their teachers, and only 10% think it could replace them in the future.
Almost three years after its emergence, Generative Artificial Intelligence is already part of teenagers’ lives: 85% use it at least once a week, according to the study.
82% of teachers believe AI could help improve personalized learning for students. According to the study, teachers use AI to develop lesson plans, automate administrative tasks, and prepare classroom activities.
For 81% of teenagers, AI is not a replacement but a helper (or co-pilot) that enhances what they can do. For 70%, it is already changing how they study. And 3 out of 10 admit to using it “in secret.” Additionally, 54% of students believe some teachers still assign tasks that are outdated because of AI.
Regarding how students use AI, the study shows the main uses are for searching information (80%) and structuring assignments (68%). Also, 1 in 3 teenagers use it to discuss personal matters or important decisions.
As for limits: 70% of teachers impose restrictions on AI use, compared to 40% of parents, but 6 out of 10 teenagers admit they’ve ignored these boundaries.
In this context, the study highlights a set of human skills that are more necessary than ever, such as adaptability, critical thinking, creativity, interpersonal relationships, perseverance, intergenerational learning, and ethical responsibility. According to the report, 50% of teenagers say their school is not preparing them to use AI ethically.
