Özet
Artificial intelligence micro-credentials are discussed as a lever for reshaping higher education towards more flexible, learner-centred and inclusive lifelong learning. The chapter first clarifies how micro-credentials are defined, designed and classified, with a particular focus on AI-focused and AI-supported offerings. It then considers how learning analytics, adaptive platforms and digital credential infrastructures can be used to strengthen quality assurance, personalisation, recognition and crossborder portability of modular learning. Equity, accessibility and ethical risks and opportunities for disadvantaged, non-traditional and disabled learners are examined throughout. Finally, a human-centred, multi-stakeholder model is outlined for linking AI micro-credentials to national qualification systems, institutional strategies and labour-market needs, so that they complement rather than replace traditional degrees while broadening meaningful opportunities for learning and work.
