NSF launches EducateAI initiative

The goal of the initiative is to enable educators to make high-quality, audience-appropriate artificial intelligence educational experiences available nationwide to K-12, community college, four-year college and graduate students, as well as adults interested in formal training in AI.

To ensure that educators are well-equipped to teach AI concepts effectively, the EducateAI initiative will offer professional development opportunities and foster communities of practice that will provide teachers with the knowledge and skills required to integrate AI into their teaching practices. In addition, the program will establish the necessary infrastructure to support AI education across diverse institutions and will include a focus on underrepresented groups in computing. The program also encourages proposals from institutions in EPSCoR, minority-serving institutions (MSIs) and emerging research institutions.
