This study was prepared by the Centre for the Prevention of  Risky Virtual Communication at the Pedagogical Faculty of Palacký University. The report provides an in-depth analysis of how Czech pupils use, perceive, and are impacted by artificial intelligence (AI) technologies. The study explores the prevalence of AI tool usage, the purposes for which students employ AI (homework, translations, presentations, problem-solving), and the risks and challenges identified by both pupils and teachers—including cheating, misinformation, and the lack of clear school policies.

The Digital Inclusion Barometer is an initiative of the King Baudouin Foundation which monitors the evolution of digital inequalities in Belgium since 2020, in particular through Statbel statistics.

This report underscores the necessity for policies enhancing digital skills and access, indirectly supporting children's digital empowerment and participation by fostering a more inclusive digital society.
