Introducing artificial intelligence through classroom debates: a student-centric approach

Learning artificial intelligence (AI) demands students to grasp under- lying concepts and cultivate critical reasoning for real-world problem-solving. However, conventional unidirectional pedagogies often struggle to foster these aptitudes. This paper introduces an innovative approach, employing cla...
