This book helps educators provide opportunities for their students to engage in creative and collaborative projects that blur the lines between subjects and promote problem-finding and problem-solving activities. It offers a global perspective on makerspaces through an Indian and Australian lens, illustrating the commonalities between the approach and the pedagogy in order to highlight the universal nature of these essential 21st-century skills. The book is particularly useful for science, technology and mathematics teachers, highlighting the potential of engaging in a more integrated curriculum approach to their specific discipline. It is of great interest to scholars whose research focuses on understanding 21st-century skills and how they can be taught and assessed in a school setting. It is an indispensable resource for teacher educators, school administrators, curriculum designers, policymakers and researchers in the field of science education.

This edited book is a collection of selected research papers presented at the 2021 2nd International Conference on Artificial Intelligence in Education Technology (AIET 2021), held in Wuhan, China on July 2-4, 2021. AIET establishes a platform for AI in education researchers to present research, exchange innovative ideas, propose new models, as well as demonstrate advanced methodologies and novel systems. Rapid developments in artificial intelligence (AI) and the disruptive potential of AI in educational use has drawn significant attention from the education community in recent years. For educators entering this uncharted territory, many theoretical and practical questions concerning AI in education are raised, and issues on AI’s technical, pedagogical, administrative and socio-cultural implications are being debated. The book provides a comprehensive picture of the current status, emerging trends, innovations, theory, applications, challenges and opportunities of current AI in education research. This timely publication is well-aligned with UNESCO’s Beijing Consensus on Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Education. It is committed to exploring how best to prepare our students and harness emerging technologies for achieving the Education 2030 Agenda as we move towards an era in which AI is transforming many aspects of our lives. Providing a broad coverage of recent technology-driven advances and addressing a number of learning-centric themes, the book is an informative and useful resource for researchers, practitioners, education leaders and policy-makers who are involved or interested in AI and education.
