Over 550 Students Participate...
"Learning AI Through Play, Bridging the Digital Divide Expected"

The Busan Metropolitan Office of Education (Superintendent Kim Seokjun) will operate an AI-based learning Neulbom program for approximately 550 first to third grade elementary school students during the summer vacation period, from July 21 to August 29, at four Neulbom-designated schools (Myeongji, Nambumin, Yunsan, and Jeonggwan Elementary Schools).


This program is being implemented as part of Superintendent Kim Seokjun's pledge, "Smarter with AI: Expanding Personalized Neulbom Education." It is designed to strengthen the basic digital literacy and digital competency of lower-grade elementary students, and will be conducted over a total of 29 days and 58 sessions during the vacation period.


The program consists of four themes: ▲Play with AI ▲AI Robot Expedition ▲AI Imagination Lab ▲AI Literacy and Numeracy Leader. Each theme will run for 14 sessions over seven days. Participating students will experience each theme in a rotating format, engaging in play- and experience-based AI learning.


This AI-based Neulbom program goes beyond simple technology experiences and is designed to help students naturally acquire AI and digital skills in their daily lives. Students will take part in a variety of activities to develop creative thinking and expressive skills, while building positive experiences with AI.


The Busan Metropolitan Office of Education expects that this program will help bridge the digital divide among students and further strengthen the foundation for Busan-style AI education.



Superintendent Kim Seokjun said, "This AI-based Neulbom program is designed so that children can participate joyfully while naturally developing their digital skills," adding, "We will continue to expand AI education that fosters future competencies and spare no policy support to bridge the digital education gap."
