How the LiDA Center is Helping Educators Harness the Power of Digital Technologies

NSF Grant to Prepare Teachers for Computer Science Standards

A $1.2M grant from the National Science Foundation will prepare 21 pre-service STEM teachers to spearhead the implementation of the new NYS Computer Science and Digital Fluency Standards in K-12 schools.

K-12 Digital Consortium and its Website

A number of school districts and local BOCES in the region, in collaboration with the LiDA Center, have come together to collaborate and learn from each other as they tackle the challenge of leveraging digital technology to transform teaching practices in their schools. The LiDA Center is “incubating” this emerging organization.

NSF Grant to Explore AI Implications for Music

LiDA Director Borasi is the PI of a $1.8M NSF grant to study how AI could empower musicians to more effectively learn, produce and disseminate music, through a collaboration of musicians, audio-engineers and educators.
