The rapid rise of Generative Artificial Intelligence (AI) is increasingly influencing the education sector globally. Understanding and supporting AI literacy among educators is therefore a growing priority to ensure confidence and competence in responsible use. This study presents the initial findings from a survey of high school teachers’ current AI literacy in Vietnam. We conducted and analysed a survey (n = 543, rural and urban) to cover AI awareness, attitudes, ethics, and methods of use. Many teachers expressed enthusiasm and perceived value in the use of AI in education, but there are still gaps in ethics, infrastructure, and training. We argue that AI literacy initiatives must go beyond technical competence and include ethics, transparency, and sociocultural relevance, supporting a meaningful integration of AI in Vietnamese schools and contributing to broader discussions in the Global South.

摘要

The rapid rise of Generative Artificial Intelligence (AI) is increasingly influencing the education sector globally. Understanding and supporting AI literacy among educators is therefore a growing priority to ensure confidence and competence in responsible use. This study presents the initial findings from a survey of high school teachers’ current AI literacy in Vietnam. We conducted and analysed a survey (n = 543, rural and urban) to cover AI awareness, attitudes, ethics, and methods of use. Many teachers expressed enthusiasm and perceived value in the use of AI in education, but there are still gaps in ethics, infrastructure, and training. We argue that AI literacy initiatives must go beyond technical competence and include ethics, transparency, and sociocultural relevance, supporting a meaningful integration of AI in Vietnamese schools and contributing to broader discussions in the Global South.
