The fourth and last transnational meeting of partners was held in October 2022 in Šibenik during the international Carnet User Conference.
In addition to the working meeting of the partners, where the methods of carrying out the final dissemination and evaluation were agreed upon, as well as agreements regarding the preparation of the final report, the partners held a dissemination section of activities: a practical workshop on programming ARTIEBot was held, an interactive lecture was held on project activities and results with the presentation of examples of good practice , and in addition, the principal of the First Primary School Čakovec, Siniša Stričak, participated in the central round table on the development of digitally mature schools.
"ARTIE: Artificial intelligence in education - challenges and opportunities of the new era: development of a new curriculum, a manual for teachers and an online course for students" is a two-year strategic partnership co-financed by the European Commission from the Erasmus+ program, and is made up of three schools and two organizations closely related to education and professional training: 1st elementary school Čakovec (Croatia), I Spoleczna Szkola Podstawowa im. Unii Europejskiej w Zamosciu (Poland), Agrupamento de Escolas do Barreiro (Portugal), Croatian Federation of Robotics (Croatia) and Nefinia (Netherlands). The carrier is the 1st elementary school Čakovec, and the international strategic partnership is managed and led by Ivana Ružić, coordinator, and Siniša Stričak, director.
On Wednesday, December 9, the first working online meeting was held, where the partners solemnly marked the beginning of work by mutual introduction and agreement on the method, dynamics of work, creation of intellectual results, testing, evaluation, reporting and dissemination. The importance of the topic and the expected achievements of this partnership is amply demonstrated by the fact that already in November 2020, even before the formal start, ARTIE was presented at the international Carnet User Conference 2020, and the Agency for Mobility and EU Programs in Zagreb rated it as this year's best project proposal in Croatia in the Erasmus+ KA201 proposal category.

At today's working meeting, goals and guidelines were agreed for the implementation of international research that will be carried out in European schools, associations and other educational institutions with the aim of determining whether artificial intelligence is used in primary school education, in what way artificial intelligence improves the learning and teaching process, which is a form of support needed by teachers when introducing artificial intelligence into education. Artificial intelligence is a key element of the STEM field that enters our classrooms in different ways, and the joint work of partners aims to offer educational content that will turn students and teachers from users into creators of digital technology.
