Luxembourg's KI-Léierbud gives educators a simple path into AI
A new Luxembourgish platform, KI-Léierbud ("AI Learning Booth"), makes Artificial Intelligence approachable for beginners and classrooms. Co-founder Claude Schuler says the idea is straightforward: start small, build confidence, and progress step by step-"for everyone."

What's inside
- Short history of AI to set context.
- A quiz on AI-generated images to test visual judgment and spark discussion.
- A poetry tool to play with style, tone, and constraints.
- Simple image generation using prompts-ideal for first projects.
Creator Marco Barnig brings about 50 years of AI experience and plans to expand the platform weekly. One of the first additions on the roadmap: a music generation app.
Why this matters for educators
- Media literacy: students learn to question what they see online and spot synthetic media.
- Creativity with guardrails: quick, low-risk activities that fit into 20-40 minute blocks.
- Assessment opportunities: prompt design, reflection journals, and peer review are easy to implement.
- Curriculum alignment: connects to digital citizenship, language arts, art/design, and computer science basics.
Fast ways to use it next week
- Image Turing Test: run the AI image quiz, then have students list three cues they used to judge authenticity.
- Poetry remix: give a theme and two constraints (e.g., alliteration + 8 lines). Compare human vs. AI drafts and discuss voice.
- Prompt lab: groups iterate on a single image prompt, document changes, and explain which wording improved results.
- Ethics bell-ringer: after any activity, ask, "Where could this help? Where could it cause harm?" Keep answers to three bullet points.
How to get started
Set a clear learning goal first: media literacy, creativity, or basic AI concepts. Pick one activity from KI-Léierbud and timebox it to a single class period.

What's next for KI-Léierbud
Barnig says the platform will evolve based on user feedback, with new modules added weekly. Music generation is slated as an early addition, which opens up quick wins for music, language, and media classes.

Bottom line: this site lowers the barrier. Start with one activity, collect feedback from students, and iterate. That's enough to build momentum without adding extra workload.
