Development of AI Educational Program for Employees to Meet the Era of the Fourth Industrial Revolution
Abstract: In the Fourth Industrial Revolution, there are some core technologies such as AI (Artificial Intelligence), IoT (Internet of Things), Robotics, etc. However, education of these technologies has not been systematized because of the state-of-the-art technologies. In this research, we focus on AI and aim to develop the framework of AI education. In the first step, the scheme of the framework of AI education is built. Furthermore, we develop the AI educational program for developers who are not familiar to AI even though they have enough knowledge and skills on their own products and services. Our program has the objectives to educate developers who are able to introduce AI technology into the field of their own products and services. Our educational program consists of 3 steps, that is, the pre e-learning, the AI workshop and the review e-learning. In this paper, our AI educational program in the workshop and the result of an experimental workshop are introduced. We conducted the experimental workshop for developers who will start to learn AI using our educational material. As a result, we got several findings for sophisticating contents of the pre e-learning and the workshop.
