Trust and Inclusion in AI-Mediated Education: Where Human Learning Meets Learning Machines is a resource for researchers and practitioners in a field where the mainstreaming of AI technologies, and their increased capacities for deception, have produced confusion and fear. Identifying theoretical frameworks and practices in teaching with and training trustworthy and inclusive AI technology sheds light on the new challenges and opportunities for learning machines and their intersections with human learning. The book looks into the history of developing AI technology and algorithms. It offers theoretical models for best practices, interpretation, and evaluation, taking into account especially the needs of contemporary learners and their advanced literacies in cyber-social environments. The book presents in-depth analyses of recent and ongoing applications of state-of-the-art AI technologies in learning environments and classrooms assessments, ending with an interview with George Ritzer on McDonaldization and Artificial Intelligence.
