Exciting news! The U.S. Department of Education just launched 4 new R&D centers to explore how Generative AI (GenAI) can revolutionize education. Colleague AI and the University of Washington (UW) are one among these four awardees. With this $10M award, we are very excited to generate real impact on future teaching and learning.
This Center focuses on the use of GenAI to enhance mathematics and science teaching and learning in K-12 schools. We will conduct exploratory studies and longitudinal, nationwide surveys of teachers to discover use scenarios and refine theories of change about how GenAI tools can transform math and science teaching and learning. This will inform the development and implementation of Colleague AI to empower teachers to compose rigorous, engaging, and inclusive lesson materials, conduct formative classroom assessments, and automatically score and generate diagnostic reports to personalize student feedback.
