A study published in Frontiers in Education evaluates artificial intelligence literacy within creative higher education programmes, specifically examining 475 students in design disciplines. The research conceptualises AI literacy as a multidimensional capability—encompassing knowledge, operational skills, critical reflection, awareness of affordances and limitations, ethical awareness, and emotional adaptability—and analyses its relationship with academic performance and student well-being.

Why it matters

This study matters because it demonstrates that effective educational and institutional AI integration extends beyond functional software training into psychological adaptability and critical evaluation. For educational organisations, treating AI literacy as a multidimensional capability is necessary to safeguard student well-being while sustaining rigorous creative performance.

Key insights

  • AI literacy in creative education functions as a multidimensional construct rather than a singular competence, comprising knowledge, operational ability, awareness of limitations and affordances, critical reflection, ethical awareness, and emotional adaptability.
  • Design-related academic programmes leverage AI across multiple stages of creative workflows, including ideation, prototyping, visual exploration, content generation, and critique.
  • The empirical investigation assesses how discrete dimensions of AI literacy correlate with student learning outcomes and academic well-being based on a cross-sectional survey of 475 participants.
