Abstract

Amidst the global challenges of climate crisis, warfare, and escalating inequality, the pursuit of achieving the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) has become increasingly imperative. Consequently, research into effective pedagogical methodologies from the student perspective continues to gain momentum. Particularly, with the advancement of generative AI technologies, the potential for leveraging such tools in providing global citizenship education to the youth is garnering attention. This study implemented and emphatically analyzed an artificial intelligence educational program focused on the creation of sustainable urban spaces under the UN Academic Impact(UNAI). The findings indicated a high level of literacy pertaining to global citizen AI education, evidenced by increased interest, satisfaction, and recommendation intention. Furthermore, the study observed an enhancement in digital interactions through the processes of posting, viewing, and real-time discussions of the created works with Generative AI such as the ChatGPT, Midjourney, and Stable Diffusion. Through these instances, the study proposes the development of HTHT curricula that enhance creative thinking, collaborative growth, and analytical capabilities.

국제적으로 기후 위기, 전쟁, 심화되는 불평등으로 인해 UN 지속가능발전목표(SDGs) 달성을 위한 노력이 중요해지면서, 학생들의 관점에서 효과적인 학습방법에 대한 연구가 계속되고 있다. 특히, 생성형 AI 기술이 발전함에 따라, 이를 활용한 청년층 대상 세계시민교육 제공의 가능성이 주목받고 있다. 본 연구에서는 UN 아카데믹 임팩트(UNAI)의 주요 지속가능한 도시공간 조성을 주제로 한 인공지능 교육 프로그램을 실시하고 이를 실증적으로 분석하였다. 그 결과, 참여한 학생들 사이에서 글로벌 시민 AI 교육과 관련된 높은 수준의 문해력과 이해도, 만족도, 추천의도가 확인되었다. 또한, 챗지피티(ChatGPT)와 미드저니(Midjourney), 스테이블 디퓨전(Stable Diffusion) 등 이미지 AI로 창작된 작품의 게시, 열람 및 실시간 토론 과정을 통해 디지털 상호작용이 강화되었음을 확인했다. 이러한 사례들을 통해, 창의적 사고, 협력적 성장 및 분석 능력을 증진시킬 수 있는 HTHT 교육과정 개발을 제안하고자 한다.
