Full Legal Analysis
Assembly Bill 2876 amends Section 33548 of the California Education Code to enhance curriculum frameworks with media and artificial intelligence (AI) literacy. The bill mandates that the Instructional Quality Commission consider incorporating media literacy into the mathematics, science, and history-social science curriculum frameworks during their next revisions after January 1, 2024. Additionally, the commission must consider including the Model Library Standards in the English language arts/English language development (ELA/ELD) curriculum framework. Furthermore, the bill requires the commission to consider integrating AI literacy into the mathematics, science, and history-social science curriculum frameworks when they are next revised after January 1, 2025. AI literacy is defined as understanding AI's principles, concepts, applications, limitations, implications, and ethical considerations. The bill also requires the commission to consider media and AI literacy in the criteria for evaluating instructional materials when the State Board of Education next adopts materials for these subjects. The bill does not specify mandatory compliance or penalties for non-compliance.
