Yesterday, the Ministry of Education Basic Education Teaching Steering Committee issued the "Guidelines for General Education of Artificial Intelligence in Primary and Secondary Schools (2025 Edition)" and the "Guidelines for Adult Artificial Intelligence Use of Primary and Secondary School Students (2025 Edition)", requiring the scientific and standardized promotion of full-stage education in artificial intelligence, prohibiting students from directly copying the content generated by artificial intelligence as homework or exam answers, and restricting the abuse of artificial intelligence in creative tasks.

  The guide proposes that artificial intelligence in primary and secondary schools is "differentiated in differentiated applications" among stages. In primary school, students use open content generation function with the help of teachers and parents to prevent unreasonable use from affecting students' knowledge construction and thinking development; teachers effectively carry out human-machine collaborative teaching in class. In junior high school, teachers can moderately explore the logical analysis of generated content to guide students to cross-verify the rationality of generated content. In high school, students can conduct inquiry learning based on technical principles and independently evaluate the social impact of generated content.

  The guide also clearly prohibits students from directly copying content generated by artificial intelligence, eliminates "representative" usage behavior from the source, requires teachers to actively carry out critical thinking training, organize students to analyze the logical defects, value tendencies and cultural deviations of text generated by artificial intelligence, and cultivate students' skepticism and ability to identify the content output of technology.

  The guide strictly prohibits teachers and students from entering sensitive data such as exam questions, personal identity information when using generative artificial intelligence tools. All primary and secondary schools need to establish and improve the "whitelist" system for generative artificial intelligence tools, and only tools that meet the needs of educational scenarios and whose data is safe and compliant are allowed to enter the campus for use.

  The education administrative department will continue to strengthen relevant regulatory responsibilities. (Reporter He Rui)
