CONCEPT NOTE: AI Education Program

Background

This Concept Note on our AI Education Program provides details on the Why,What,How of rolling our the right education program to train your teachers and students.

65% of Students in School will enter into jobs that don’t exist today. 42% of Core Skills in all jobs will be replaced by AI. There is also the longstanding concern about the low rate of female participation in science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) studies and consequently STEM careers.

AI Skilling will be a key enabler for the attainment of the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development. AI is impacting all aspects of society, from how we learn to how we drive to healthcare innovations. AI will enable applications and processes to get smarter thus increasing the benefit to society. According to an Accenture analysis, “AI has the potential to add US$957 billion, or 15 percent of current gross value added, to India’s economy in 2035. To avoid missing out on this opportunity, policymakers and business leaders must prepare for, and work toward, the AI revolution. While AI Technologies are Transforming Societies worldwide, the Lack of AI Skills is the number one challenge this Transformation faces. A Digital Divide is fast developing between the Haves and the Have-nots, which needs to be urgently bridged. To achieve AI’s potential, both boys and girls, men and women need equal access to AI education and careers.

WiselyWise understands that the clear solution for bridging this gap can be found in our schools and colleges as well as corporations through Skilling programs. This Concept Note on AI Education Program underscores the fact that the need of the hour is to educate students at an early age about how to be creators of AI, not just consumers of AI. Our Research has shown that the existing STEM programs that focus on coding and robotics fall quite short in the AI Education Space. We have been actively creating AI Courses embracing tools and curricula that teach the full complement of AI concepts to truly prepare students for AI career success, such as visual recognition, landmark-based navigation, object manipulation, facial recognition and expressions, speech generation, and speech recognition. WiselyWise is also actively investing and creating Teacher-focused solutions that remove barriers of time, cost, and adoption friction, which often stand in the way of embracing AI.
