CodeAI is an education innovation nonprofit dedicated to the vision that every student in every school has the opportunity to learn about artificial intelligence (AI) and computer science (CS) as part of their core K-12 education. We increase participation in AI+CS education by reaching students of all backgrounds where they are — at their skill level, in their schools, and in ways that inspire them to keep learning, with a focus on increasing participation by young women and students from other underrepresented groups.

The leading provider of K-12 AI+CS education curriculum across the globe, CodeAI also organizes the annual Hour of AI campaign, building on the legacy of the Hour of Code, which has engaged more than 15% of all students in the world!

• Use AI tools to accelerate and strengthen your development work while holding a high bar for accuracy and pedagogical quality.
• Ground every lesson in research-based, culturally responsive, student-centered pedagogy so the work is engaging and approachable for all students and their teachers.

• Comfort and curiosity using AI tools in your work, and genuine interest in teaching both with and about AI
