The National Science Foundation awarded a Project Grant of $1,621,745 to the University of Tennessee, Knoxville under the STEM Education (formerly Education and Human Resources) program (CFDA 47.076). The project, titled "COLLABORATIVE RESEARCH: CULTIVATING TOMORROW'S INNOVATORS THROUGH EXPLORING PLANETARY IMAGES WITH ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE", will design, develop, and test a sequence of lessons for high school youth in East Tennessee to teach them artificial intelligence concepts using images from planetary exploration and generative AI tools to create visual artworks and digital stories. The project aims to engage underrepresented and under-resourced youth in STEM fields through this integrative approach over the 3-year award period, directly impacting approximately 360 students. Subawards are planned under this grant. The project will investigate the influence of the program on student AI knowledge, STEM engagement and identity, and sense of belonging, as well as examine program features and content that contribute to these outcomes.
