AGENTS.md — TFIS AI Ethics in Education

Project: Course: Navigating Ethical Challenges of AI in Student Learning Course dates: 1–3 September 2026 (Tuesday–Thursday) · 7 sessions × 2 hours = 14 contact hours Audience: Higher-education / pre-university educators, academic staff, programme leaders (Malaysian HE) Status: 🟢 Content complete — all 7 slide decks, facilitator guide, assessments, course pack, print pack, and sources are built and ready for delivery.


1. What This Workspace Contains

The complete curriculum for TFIS's AI Ethics in Education course (workshop), delivered over three days at a Malaysian higher-education institution. The course is a single argument in seven movements: understand the AI-in-education landscape → build ethical fluency → ship an institutional AI-use guideline.

2. Arc & Philosophy

Day Movement Sessions Output
Tuesday (1/9) UNDERSTAND S1, S2 EAI-CMM baseline; ethics triage; case memo
Wednesday (2/9) BUILD S3, S4, S5, S6 Verification logs; redesigned assessment; guardrailed tutor; gap analysis
Thursday (3/9) SHIP S7 (+S8) Guideline v0.1; EAI-CMM delta; 90-day action plan

Core claims (the seven axioms):

Two spines run throughout:


3. Design Decisions Binding on All Deliverables

  1. Case-first for S2 and S3. No principle/evidence slide before the room has worked an opening case cold. S2: Ofqual 2020 + St George's 1980s. S3: Texas A&M–Commerce 2023.
  2. The course pack is the spine. All scripts, prompts, and instruments originate from sources/course-ai-ethics-course-pack.md. Syllabus reorders S2/S3 where case-first requires it.
  3. Sources restricted to the register. Only Stanford HAI (primary), Anthropic, MIT (AI & Education report), Penn/Wharton, Oxford, Harvard — nothing else cited anywhere.
  4. S6–S7 grounded in Malaysian context. PDPA 2010 as statutory floor, AI Governance Bill fact sheets for risk-tier mapping, [LOCAL] slots for MQA/MOHE/senate.
  5. Single-file HTML slides on the tfis-fluency brand system (cream/pine/sun palette, Archivo + Hanken Grotesk).
  6. Evening rule (S2, S6): No lecture block >12 minutes. Discussion-heavy, more work-surface slides.
  7. Every live demo ships with offline screenshot fallbacks in the deck appendix.

4. The Capstone (Why Everything Exists)

Every participant leaves with:


5. File Conventions

Convention Rule
Slide naming 02-slides/s{1..7}.html — one single-file HTML per session
Prompts P01–P15, model-agnostic, [BRACKETS] for fill-in-values
Instruments D1–D7: exit tickets, verification log, redesign sheet, case memo, guideline skeleton, action plan, EAI-CMM score sheet
Session structure All specs in 01-syllabus/syllabus.md — the binding contract
Run sheets 03-facilitator-guide/facilitator-guide.md — operational layer (timings, deck cues)
Course pack sources/course-ai-ethics-course-pack.md — full scripts, talking points, source register, appendices
Brand Cream (#FAF5EB) / Pine (#16453A) / Sun (#F2B63C) — Archivo (headings) + Hanken Grotesk (body)
S2/S6 decks Obey the evening rule; physically order case slides before framework slides
Case dossiers sources/cases/ — one per opening case: factual core, discussion prompts, facilitator notes
Print pack 05-print-pack/print-pack.html → PDF — A4 printable, cover page, all instruments, all prompts

6. Key Evidence Anchors

Study Where What it proves
2026 AI Index (Stanford HAI) S1, S3, S6 Capability/gap widening; 88% org adoption; 4 in 5 students using AI; 6% of policies clear
MIT AI in Education Report (Ad Hoc Committee, Aug 2026) S1, S2, S5, S6 8 principles, 30 sub-recommendations; apprenticeship-displacement risk; grading-system provocation; guideline component evidence base
Liang et al., Patterns 2023 S3 (evidentiary core) 61%+ false-positive bias vs non-native English writers; one-prompt evasion
Bastani et al., PNAS 2025 S5 (the keystone) Crutch-effect RCT: +48%/+127% assisted, −17% unassisted; guardrails engineered harm away
Wang & Demszky, Tutor CoPilot 2024 S1 Real-time AI-assisted tutoring: +4pp mastery overall, +9pp for lowest-rated tutors
Anthropic Education Report, Apr 2025 S1, S2, S3 ~50% of student AI use is direct answer-seeking; misuse patterns at scale
Ofqual 2020 · St George's 1980s · Texas A&M 2023 S2, S3 opening cases Automated judgment failures pre-/post-AI; bias laundered into consistency; detection-chaos

7. Build Notes for Future Work


8. AI-Assisted Development

This course was drafted with AI assistance (Claude) under human direction and verification. All sources are restricted to the register in sources/source-register.md — practicing the diligence the course preaches. The course materials carry their own AI-use disclosure statements throughout.
