Everyday AI (EdAI) For Youth (NSF Award # 2048746)
- Developed a new version of an AI curriculum for middle school students, called the Developing AI Literacy (DAILy) 2.0. Through co-design with teachers, I transformed an original collection of activities into a coherent curriculum by…
- conducting over 80 teacher interviews,
- training field investigators to conduct over 25 observations of teacher classroom implementation, and
- co-organizing 2 annual national teacher curriculum Hack-a-thons.
- Established an effective model for developing in-service middle school teacher AI literacy and pedagogical knowledge through a two stage process that introduces teachers to AI concepts, then, allows teachers time to practice teaching AI in authentic classroom settings. I established effectiveness by…
- leading the EdAI teacher PD for 65 teachers across 5 states: FL, IL, VA, NY, and NM
- coordinating 22 teacher practicums / summer camps for teachers to practice teaching AI concepts, and
- co-leading analysis of teacher (n=65) and student (n=519) learning outcomes.
- Established a novel machine learning concept inventory (ML-CI) and assessment for high school students by…
- developing and implementing 6 cognitive interviews and 35 retrospective exit interviews
- facilitating interviews with 9 machine learning experts to establish content validity, and
- performing analysis using item response theory (IRT) and confirmatory factor analysis (CFA)
- Co-developed and empirically tested the impact of a novel machine learning curriculum on high school student learning of machine learning concepts and skills - including foundational concepts in linear regression, decision trees, principal component analysis, and artificial neural networks - by…
- performing a mixed method analysis of student surveys (n=77), student interviews (n=35), and classroom observations in the informal learning environment of a museum education setting
