AI Learning Framework at Trinity

We believe that students today need a strong foundation in human-first AI literacy; ideally, this foundational learning happens in a student’s first year. The goal of fluency is to become a more effective and responsible user of AI. Fluency is developed over a student’s four years, and it requires ongoing practice and feedback across different contexts; this includes learning the ethics of when not to use AI, which we see as a valuable skill. This developmental approach, from AI literacy to fluency, can complement a strong liberal arts education and prepare students for informed civic engagement and any career trajectory.
