inventfuture: understanding the Future of Work - Data Science / AI across industriesinventfuture workshop with leadership team to demystify the Future of Work / AI and brainstorm how those core skills can be introduced into core courses for every student
Identifying what students need to learn for the Future of Work - Data Science / AIDetermine the end skills and concepts required for AI and Data Science
Determine the prerequisite technical skills and concepts and build a progression tree
Connecting Future of Work with Core standardsFirst pass at connecting the technical skills and concepts with the Common Core, AP, and other core standards
Highlight units that your teachers may not be currently teaching but are essential to understanding Data Science / AI
inventcurriculum ideationFrom the connections, enumerate potential real-world projects and a few possible sequences
Fundraising and getting community partnersSet up meetings with local companies for sponsorship
Prepare a pitch slideshow (and making some possible iterations), putting together a clear ask and value proposition
Pitch with you to companies/foundations for sponsorship
inventcurriculum Project #1:
Entry-level (9th grade) Data Science / AICo-design a rough lesson plan with teachers
Code / build a technical demo as an example of what students could produce
Develop the instructional content, videos, diagrams, quizzes, etc. for students and teachers to be able to follow along and build their own projects
Collect and clean a variety of datasets for students to choose from
inventXYZ trains teachers - teachers do the project as if they are the students and then reflect as educators
inventcurriculum Project #2:
Entry-level (10th grade) Data Science / AICo-design a rough lesson plan with teachers
Code / build a technical demo as an example of what students could produce
Develop the instructional content, videos, diagrams, quizzes, etc. for students and teachers to be able to follow along and build their own projects.

Making sure IT infrastructure is ready for students to create Data Science / AI projectsHelp you understand IT infrastructure requirements so that you know what tools and permissions students need to be able to code.
inventorspaceHelp identify the area in the high school to turn into an inventorspace
Identify the physical specifications and potential alterations required for the space
Help your facilities team generate the budget for the inventorspace to request in the bond
Help pitch the overall vision of the AI academy, the space, and curriculum to constitutuents
