Abstract: (11 Views)
As artificial intelligence (AI) becomes increasingly integrated into everyday life and professional domains, higher education institutions face a growing imperative to cultivate AI literacy among students. This systematic review synthesizes findings from 25 peer-reviewed empirical studies published between 2019 and 2025, focusing on instructional methods and challenges related to teaching AI literacy in higher education. Guided by a custom-developed 4P Framework—Pedagogical Approaches, Purpose of Instruction, Participant Profiles, and Platforms & Tools—the review identifies dominant trends such as the widespread use of project-based learning, the central role of ChatGPT and other generative AI tools, and a pedagogical shift toward ethical reflection and interdisciplinary integration. Findings reveal a dynamic but fragmented landscape where technical training is increasingly supplemented with critical evaluation, ethical reasoning, and socio-cultural awareness. However, gaps remain in global representation, policy engagement, and platform diversity. This study provides a foundational map for educators, curriculum designers, and policymakers seeking to design inclusive, reflective, and future-ready AI literacy programs in higher education.
