Итог:In line with global trends, the integration of artificial intelligence (AI) into the Nigerian school system has begun to take shape. However, efforts related to instructional and pedagogical design, professional learning programmes, and guidelines for best practices remain limited, given the inherent contextual features. Although the recently launched draft of the National AI Strategy shows promising development in building an AI ecosystem in the country, additional considerations are necessary to ensure the effective integration of AI into teaching and learning practices. This paper provides insights into teaching about AI and utilising AI in the classroom within the Nigerian school system. It further highlights the Nigerian government’s initiatives on AI, including ethics, professional development needs, the state of instructional design, and the way forward for effective AI integration in the school system.
