The Catholic Companion Framework for Technology and Innovation
Faithful Guidance for Catholic Educators Navigating Technology, Artificial Intelligence, and Innovation
Artificial intelligence and digital innovation are transforming how we live, learn, and form young people. Catholic education has an opportunity to respond not with fear or fascination, but with faith.
The Catholic Companion Framework for Technology and Innovation helps educators, leaders, and families navigate emerging technologies through a distinctly Catholic lens. Rooted in Scripture, the Catechism, and Catholic Social Teaching, it offers five interwoven strands that guide digital formation from early childhood through higher education.
Each strand invites reflection and action, helping Catholic Educators integrate technology in ways that honor human dignity, foster virtue, and form students who are both rooted in faith and ready for the future.
Whether you are a teacher, principal, parish minister, or parent, this framework provides a shared language and direction for approaching innovation, AI, and emerging technologies as tools for discipleship, creativity, and service to the common good.
