Through innovative approaches, we aim to enhance participation in learning, research and policymaking, fostering a comprehensive understanding of the impact of data and AI whilst promoting inclusivity in critical data and AI literacy. By reflecting on the Higher Education (HE) context, we advocate for active participation and co-creation within data ecosystems, amplifying the voices of educators and learners. Our methodology employs a triangulation model: initially, we conduct interpretative analyses of literature to gauge best practices for curriculum development in HE; then, we examine frameworks in data justice and ethics to identify principles and skills applicable to undergraduate, postgraduate and academic development programs; finally, we explore proposals for critical, creative, ethical, open and innovative ideas for educators to integrate data and AI into their practice. date: 2025-01-16 date_type: published publisher: Association for Learning Technology official_url: https://doi.org/10.25304/rlt.v32.3296 oa_status: green full_text_type: pub language: eng primo: open primo_central: open_green verified: verified_manual elements_id: 2353920 doi: 10.25304/rlt.v32.3296 lyricists_name: Havemann, Leo lyricists_id: LHAVE18 actors_name: Havemann, Leo actors_id: LHAVE18 actors_role: owner full_text_status: public publication: Research in Learning Technology volume: 32 issn: 2156-7069 citation: Atenas, Javiera; Havemann, Leo; Nerantzi, Chrissi; (2025) Critical and creative pedagogies for artificial intelligence and data literacy: an epistemic data justice approach for academic practice.
