- This $1,192,951 federal Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's STEM Education program (CFDA 47.076) will fund a 3-year program to provide 15 high school teachers and 60 high school students, primarily from underrepresented and rural communities in Mississippi, with innovative learning experiences in machine learning and computer vision. The project aims to develop the AI/ML competencies of these students and prepare them for potential careers in artificial intelligence and...
This $1,495,569 federal Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's STEM Education program (CFDA 47.076) will support a project by Trustees of Boston College to advance computational thinking and microelectronics education through the use of generative AI within an engineering design framework. The project aims to investigate how recent advances in AI can support the development of computational thinking skills in a biology curriculum, where students will design and program a robotic arm controlled by their own muscle activity. It will also inspire and prepare students to participate in the microelectronics industry by engaging them with electronic circuits and microchip simulations. The project will directly enhance the STEM learning of 20 high school teachers and 500 students. It will design innovative AI tools to support computational thinking instruction and establish validity evidence for an AI prompting tool for high school students. The project will run from Sep 2025 through Aug 2028.
