Responsible use of AI tools is the focus of this Grade 6 Computer Science worksheet, which teaches students to evaluate AI-generated information, protect personal privacy, recognize bias, and make ethical decisions when using artificial intelligence. Through reading, reasoning, and written responses, students explore how AI can support learning without replacing human judgment or personal responsibility.

What Students Learn About Responsible AI

Students examine realistic questions about using AI for schoolwork and everyday activities. The resource emphasizes checking accuracy against reliable sources, identifying unsupported claims, recognizing unfair or biased responses, following classroom rules, and protecting sensitive personal information. Students also consider academic honesty and the importance of taking responsibility for work created with AI assistance.

Key concepts include accuracy, reliable sources, human judgment, bias, privacy, ethics, fairness, and responsible decision-making. These concepts help students evaluate AI suggestions thoughtfully rather than automatically accepting confident-sounding answers.

Activities Included in the Worksheet

• Think and Summarize: A dialogue-based activity that encourages students to reflect on responsible AI use.
• Matching Pairs: Connect related concepts and ideas about artificial intelligence and ethical use.
• Fill the Passage: Complete a cloze passage using key vocabulary in context, including accuracy, reliable sources, judgment, bias, privacy, and ethics.
• Label the Diagram: Explore a visual representation of responsible AI use.
• Reading Comprehension: Read “Using AI With Care,” which explains accuracy checking, human judgment, fairness, privacy, and academic honesty.
• Multiple-Choice Questions: Apply information from the passage to scenarios involving conflicting facts, unfair descriptions, privacy risks, and classroom expectations.
• True-or-False Statements: Evaluate claims about AI accuracy, bias, privacy, and appropriate school use.
• Short-Answer Questions: Explain how to verify AI responses, respond to possible bias, and demonstrate responsible behavior.
• Extended Response: Develop a reasoned approach to a scenario involving an unsupported AI claim and a request for personal information.

Practical Classroom Applications

Use this AI literacy worksheet during a Grade 6 Computer Science lesson on artificial intelligence, a digital citizenship unit, or a discussion about technology and academic integrity. The reading passage introduces the central ideas, while the follow-up activities give students opportunities to interpret information, apply concepts to practical situations, and explain their reasoning in writing.

The scenario-based questions are especially useful for classroom discussions about what to do when an AI answer conflicts with a trusted textbook, describes a group unfairly, or requests sensitive details. Students can practise distinguishing helpful AI assistance from decisions that require verification, caution, and independent judgment.

What Is Included for Teachers?

• Printable student worksheet: A varied sequence of reading, vocabulary, comprehension, diagram, and written-response activities.
• Separate Teacher Guide PDF: Includes learning objectives, teaching tips, discussion questions, and common mistakes.

The accompanying guide provides practical support for introducing the topic, facilitating discussion, and addressing likely misunderstandings. Together, the worksheet and teacher guide offer a focused resource for teaching responsible AI use without assuming that students should accept every AI-generated answer as correct.

Curriculum note: The resource is identified as General rather than aligned to a named curriculum standard. It is intended for Grade 6 Computer Science instruction on artificial intelligence and responsible technology use.
