According to AI TIMES, the Ministry of Education will, for the first time, develop textbooks and educational materials for 16 AI-related subjects selected through a public competition under teacher leadership and apply them in classes starting in March 2028. On August 28 and 29, the ministry will hold training sessions for authors to support the development process, copyright issues, and hands-on practice in drafting manuscripts for each subject. Until now, schools have faced a heavy burden of having to create their own materials for classes because there were few related subjects in the field, and calls for textbook development to ease that burden have continued. This development will be carried out in a way that lets frontline teachers lead the entire process, from curriculum analysis and unit design to writing, reflecting classroom experience and schools' needs. The textbooks will contain core concepts and principles, while the latest fast-changing technology trends and activity examples will be supplemented with separate volumes or web-based materials and continuously revised. The plan also includes first testing their usefulness through pilot applications in schools, then going through official certification review before full distribution.

Perspective

This move looks like a signal that the school textbook system is shifting away from locking rapidly changing content into a single volume and toward splitting basic concepts from the latest examples. In particular, putting frontline teachers at the center of development should narrow the gap with actual classroom instruction and create more room to reduce the variation in materials that schools have been making individually. In the end, it means expanding the foundation for AI education to take root more stably within public education, beyond a stage where it depends on the capabilities of a few schools or individual teachers.
