Development and Validation of an Ethical Framework for Artificial Intelligence in Education: The Case of the Moroccan Context
Article Sidebar
Main Article Content
Abstract
This article presents the development of an ethical framework designed to guide the use of artificial intelligence (AI) in education, with a particular emphasis on the Moroccan context. The adopted methodology includes a comprehensive review of the literature on ethics in the fields of AI, education, and specifically within the Moroccan context. This literature was processed and analyzed using Nvivo and Tropes software. Afterwards, a survey was carried out with key stakeholders such as teacher-researchers, AI engineers, and higher education officials, with the aim to validate the developed ethical framework. Survey results were analyzed using the SPSS statistical tool to define priority ethical indicators. The resulting ethical framework aims to guide practitioners and decision-makers toward ethical educational practices, taking into account the cultural and social specificities of Morocco.
