Schools could use federal funds to teach students about AI and train teachers.
This bill would let schools use existing federal money to teach K-12 students about artificial intelligence. It would also allow these funds to pay for training for teachers and school staff on how to use and teach AI safely, effectively, and responsibly.
Currently, federal education law does not clearly allow states and local school districts to use certain funds for teaching students about artificial intelligence or for training educators on AI. If this bill becomes law, states and local school districts would be able to use these existing federal funds. This money could pay for AI instruction for students. It could also pay for professional development for all school staff on how to use and teach AI safely, effectively, and responsibly.
