‘Artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML) increasingly shape decision-making in high-impact domains such as healthcare, yet most secondary students lack opportunities to understand how these systems function or reproduce inequities. Advancing AI literacy in K–12 education requires context-rich curricula paired with valid assessments that measure students’ understanding of foundational ML concepts. This study developed and provided initial validation evidence for an assessment of foundational ML understanding while examining student learning within a context-based healthcare AI curriculum.’
