This Project Grant award of $430,000.00 from the National Science Foundation's Division of Undergraduate Education (CFDA 47.076 STEM Education) aims to develop artificial intelligence (AI) literacy among undergraduate engineering and technology students at George Mason University (GMU) and Youngstown State University. The project will create and implement six case studies focused on familiar AI applications such as career preparation, campus sustainability, autonomous vehicles, and mental health systems. Over 500 students will engage with these situated case study discussions, which integrate competencies in complex systems cognition, perspectival understanding, and critical thinking. The project plans to assess student learning gains through pre- and post-surveys, concept maps, discussion transcripts, and focus groups. The findings will inform the development of transferable mindsets and skills to prepare students for AI innovation and support the nation's economic well-being. The project will also disseminate the case studies through faculty development workshops reaching ten external institutions.
