The workshop will bring together researchers, educators, school leaders, technology developers, policymakers, and other stakeholders to document...
- The National Science Foundation Division of Research on Learning in Formal and Informal Settings awarded Northwestern University $899,999 on September 1, 2026, to co-design human-AI collaborative tools for teaching agent-based modeling to high school students under the STEM Education program (CFDA 47.076). The project develops and evaluates a structured human-AI method that connects model goals, measurements, rules, code, and simulated worlds, enabling learners to work step-by-step from ideas to...
- The National Science Foundation Division of Information and Intelligent Systems awarded the Computer Science Teachers Association, LLC a $1.726 million cooperative agreement on April 1, 2026, under the Computer and Information Science and Engineering program (CFDA 47.070) to develop and implement AI Professional Development Weeks—an intensive summer model combined with sustained community support that equips K-12 teachers across multiple states to integrate artificial intelligence and...
- The National Science Foundation Division of Research on Learning in Formal and Informal Settings awarded the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill $750,000 on August 15, 2026, under the STEM Education program (CFDA 47.076) to develop and study an AI-assisted professional development program supporting high school science teachers to design and deliver learning experiences that emphasize epistemic practices in science instruction. The project operates through two components: training and...
- The National Science Foundation Division of Research on Learning in Formal and Informal Settings awarded the University of Pennsylvania $223,210 on July 1, 2026, under the STEM Education program (CFDA 47.076) to develop and research language-based artificial intelligence curriculum modules for high school students. The project will develop a two-hour introductory AI module and three five-hour modules integrating AI concepts into mathematics, English language arts, and history instruction. The...
- The National Science Foundation Division of Computing and Communication Foundations awarded American Institutes For Research In The Behavioral Sciences $479,932 on July 15, 2026, under the Computer and Information Science and Engineering program (CFDA 47.070) to develop and validate measurement scales assessing artificial intelligence literacy among middle school teachers. The project develops high-quality instruments to measure three dimensions of teacher AI literacy—knowledge, skills, and...
The National Science Foundation Division of Research on Learning in Formal and Informal Settings awarded the University of Illinois $414,556 on August 1, 2026, under the STEM Education program (CFDA 47.076) to co-design, implement, and research artificial intelligence learning experiences with high school computing teachers. The project will conduct two iterative two-year qualitative studies to understand AI literacy development across teacher professional development sessions, co-design sessions, and classrooms within the Exploring Computer Science program. The research will produce a framework for building capacity for AI literacy in high school computing classrooms by collaboratively developing curricular materials with teachers, intended to serve as a blueprint for K-12 AI education. Activities include designing materials that help students explore fundamental computing concepts underlying AI—including problem-solving, algorithms, and data science—through hands-on programming activities, while also providing teacher preparation and professional development support to enable sustained implementation. Performance of work occurs in Urbana, Illinois, with a period of performance through July 31, 2031.
