In the wake of the June awareness month dedicated to promoting the responsible use of AI in education, the Committee for Digital and Artificial Intelligence Strategic Orientation, at USJ (Saint Joseph University of Beirut) has taken a significant step forward. The Committee has devised a comprehensive framework to foster a safe and ethical implementation of artificial intelligence in the educational community. This framework comprises eight guiding principles, which serve as a synthesis of the recommendations derived from the events held last month.

These principles and guidelines form a crucial component of USJ's digital transformation plan, necessitating the dedicated commitment and active involvement of all stakeholders. The objective is to equip USJ to adapt to technological advancements, thereby enhancing the student experience and boosting the productivity of administrative staff.

The core objective of these guiding principles is to facilitate the effective, responsible, and ethical use of artificial intelligence in teaching and learning contexts. Recognizing the transformative potential of AI, the educational community aims to leverage its contribution optimally. However, this necessitates the adoption of strategic orientations for the seamless integration of AI in higher education.
