Fellowship Program

Apply to be a part of the IntegrateAI Fellows Program

We invite teachers to partner with us in the IntegrateAI project. IntegrateAI is designed to flexibly integrate AI learning through NLP into middle school science through participatory co-design with middle school teachers. The integrated curriculum draws on the NGSS three-dimensional learning framework and is aligned with Florida, Indiana, North Carolina and middle school science. A key element of the curriculum is to leverage problem-based learning to integrate NLP in science classrooms.

Selected Fellows Will Receive

  • $1500 compensation: 500 for PD + $1,000 for implementation

  • Documentation for Professional Growth Points and Continuing Education Units

  • Access to NLP4Science, a digital NLP platform.

  • Robust professional development opportunities around collaborative problem-based learning, including a 2 day-long in person session (cost of substitute teachers will be covered)
