Work in Progress: A Survey of Artificial Intelligence Educational Resources for Pre-College Education

Presented at Student Division (STDT) Technical Session 3: Student Innovative Practice

Artificial Intelligence (AI) has emerged as the next imperative topic in pre-college education. Given the rapid integration of AI in K-12 education, examining the resources and curricula currently available for teaching AI is vital. Therefore, this exploratory study conducted a literature review to survey AI resources developed for K-12 education and how the resources enabled students to explore AI ideas and practices. The preliminary findings revealed that many developed resources and curricula focused on secondary education, specifically middle school. However, recently there has been an increase in curriculum development for primary education.
