KI in der Bildung: Rechtliche Orientierung für Bildungseinrichtungen und Lehrkräfte

This resource provides a practical legal orientation for educational institutions and teaching staff on the use of artificial intelligence (AI) in educational contexts. It focuses in particular on copyright-related questions and responsibilities arising from the use and publication of AI-generated content.

The material outlines key principles of copyright law in relation to AI, highlighting that AI-generated outputs are generally not protected as works under copyright law. At the same time, it emphasizes that responsibility for the use and dissemination of such content remains with the human actors involved—such as teachers or institutions.

Special attention is given to potential copyright infringements that may occur when AI-generated content is published. The resource explains under which circumstances liability may arise, even in cases where infringements were not intentional, and provides guidance on how to mitigate legal risks through careful review and responsible use.

This publication is intended to support educators, administrators, and policymakers in developing a legally informed and reflective approach to integrating AI tools into teaching and learning processes.
