AI Education

Artificial intelligence (AI) is seamlessly integrating into every aspect of our lives, with professional and personal implications. As AI continues to transform the world, it prompts us to reflect on how best to prepare our students for the future. Educators are critical players in these dynamic K-12 shifts, playing an integral role in preparing students to thrive in an AI-enhanced world. To do so, educators must learn how to harness AI to augment the learning experience, engage with students about AI and its impact, and take agency in how and when to integrate AI in their classroom in ways that motivate and inspire future learning, problem solving, and career development.

At CS Everyone, we want to support educators in these tasks by:

Demystifying AI: Exploring and illustrating complex AI concepts with practical education applications
Providing Actionable Resources: Offering up-to-date learning materials and tools to support AI education
Fostering a Community: Creating a collaborative space for educators to share experiences, resources, and best practices in AI education, free from any product or company affiliations – just educators working together to maximize AI opportunities for all learners.

AI Microcredentials

Our AI Education initiative offers a series of four microcredentials that were co-designed with teachers (from public, private, and charter schools), instructional designers, and coaches to equip educators with the knowledge and skills needed to integrate AI into K-12 education effectively. Our microcredentials include:
