OSLO, June 19 (Reuters) – Norway is imposing a near ban on the use of generative AI tools by elementary school pupils while also restricting their \u200buse in the education of older children to prevent a \u200cnegative impact on learning, the country’s prime minister said on Friday.<\/div>\n
Facing a broad decline in education test scores, the government in 2024 banned smartphones from schools and has \u200bgiven teachers back more powers to enforce discipline in the \u200bclassroom.<\/div>\n
Using AI increases the risk that young children skip important \u2060steps in their education, Prime Minister Jonas Gahr Stoere told a press \u200bconference on Friday.<\/div>\n
“The most important thing in school is that our children \u200blearn to read, write and do mathematics,” Stoere said, adding that the new standards will be imposed from the new school year beginning in late August.<\/div>\n
Pupils from first \u200bthrough seventh grade, aged 6 to 13, should as a general \u200brule not be using AI, while those in lower secondary school, aged 14 to \u200c16, can \u2060cautiously adopt tools under teachers’ supervision, the government said.<\/div>\n
In upper secondary education, from ages 17 to 19, students should learn to use AI appropriately so that they are prepared for further education and work, it added.<\/div>\n
Norway \u200bbegan adopting computers \u200bin classrooms in \u2060the 1990s and tablets after the introduction of the iPad from 2010 onwards, reducing the reliance on books \u200band handwriting.<\/div>\n
But in a related statement on Friday the \u200bgovernment also \u2060said it will propose legislation to fund the use of more books in classrooms, reversing the trend towards computer tablets.<\/div>\n
The Norwegian government in April also \u2060announced \u200bplans to ban children from using social media \u200buntil they turn 16, following a trend pioneered by Australia and some other nations to reduce young \u200bpeople’s use of electronic devices.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
