Expanding our Educational Outreach and Broadening Participation contribute to the larger impact of our Institute - leading our nation towards a future where all students— especially those whose identities are underrepresented in STEM—routinely engage in rich and rewarding collaborative learning by working in teams composed of diverse students and AI Partners. We are promoting social justice by implementing an entire curriculum focused on social justice topics, partnering with diverse stakeholders including our partner districts' teachers for AI curriculum development that will reach close to 1500 students this year, and engaging a diverse group of students through our Learning Futures workshops. We have launched programs to develop the skills of current and future AI researchers.

Sensor Immersion Teachers

Teacher Advisory Board

Teachers who have experience with our Sensor Immersion Curriculum are being recruited to help us develop and test technologies to facilitate classroom collaboration. TAB members will provide feedback on technological design components through interviews, surveys, and testing. TAB members will learn about and contribute to the development of cutting-edge collaborative technologies for classrooms. 

High school Internship Program

This research experience program for high school students aims to develop the interns’ capacity to envision, co-create, critique, and apply student-AI collaborative learning technologies in their classrooms and beyond. The students will learn about iSAT’s research, collaborate with researchers, and complete a research project based on their interests, focusing on iSAT AI designs. 

iSAT Community Events

iSAT is expanding its effort to support career pathways in AI and/or technology. Through community events, iSAT is working with trusted partners in K-12 to offer more diverse ways for K-12 students to engage with AI content and potential career pathways. This will help us broaden our presence in the community and grow the next generation of talent.
