Abstract
Artificial Intelligence (AI) is intervening positively in educations. UNESCO considers as a new vision to involve AI not only as a didactic medium but also as a science in which children can develop their intellect, through workshops, courses, and curricula focused on the fundamentals of AI, allowing them to develop skills such as computational and critical thinking. This research aims to design the DIA4K12 framework, which proposes the structure to support the teaching-learning process of AI in primary and secondary education. The core of the framework consists of four phases: planning, execution, process, and development; three components: open educational resources, K-12 curriculum and active methodologies; five sublevels: logical reasoning, computational thinking, and disconnected artificial intelligence, mathematics for AI, programming and machine learning; and three transversal axes: communities (communities of practice), open license (creative commons) and ethics. Finally, the framework was applied to a case study in the context of the Ecuadorian General Basic Education curriculum for the subject of Mathematics, using three phases, three components, and two sublevels.
