This federal Project Grant award of $901,299 from the National Science Foundation's STEM Education program (CFDA 47.076) supports the "ELEMENTARYAI PROJECT" - a research-practice partnership between North Carolina State University and Montgomery County (North Carolina) Schools to enhance student learning in English language arts and mathematics through the integration of artificial intelligence (AI) in elementary school curricula. The key products of this project include the development of a suite of AI-integrated elementary school curricula, as well as adapted AI literacy assessment scales for both students and teachers. This work aims to leverage elementary students' excitement around AI to improve learning outcomes, while also significantly enhancing teachers' AI literacy and readiness to integrate AI in their classrooms. The project employs a highly collaborative, iterative design-based implementation research approach to determine areas for learning improvement and design new AI-integrated curricula to address those needs. This award runs from October 1, 2025 through September 30, 2028.
