Overview
Classrooms fall behind innovation cycles, leaving students unprepared for the modern workforce. We aim to solve that.
AI for Every Student brings AI Literacy to K-12 students, starting with the 650,000+ students of Louisiana. We provide coaching, professional development, and AI tools in classrooms.
During our NOAI festival on November 11th, participants will share their work and experiences bringing AI to the classroom. Our ultimate goal is to ensure the safe and effective implementation of AI in schools everywhere.
