FOR SCHOOLS & COMMUNITY PARTNERS • PROPOSED PILOT
Help Students Build Skills for a Changing World.
WOLi AI Explorers is developing a free six-week pilot to introduce grades 7–12 to AI literacy, responsible use, career readiness and hands-on creation. The program is designed to complement the goals of schools and youth organizations, including afterschool enrichment and future workforce exploration.
What WOLi proposes to provide
- Six-week Level 1 curriculum
- Facilitator guides and printable activities
- Age-adapted exercises
- Project rubric
- Week-six showcase format
- Short learning outcomes summary
What to work out with a school or youth partner
- Age ranges and cohort selection
- Session location and schedule
- Staff supervision and background checks
- Technology and internet access
- Accessibility needs
- Tool and data use approvals
- Family permissions
- Publicity and photos
- Transportation, budget and evaluation approach
Example pilot structure, subject to agreement
Six weeks, one small cohort to start.
- 6 Weeks
- 2–3 Hours Per Week
- One Small Cohort
- Free for Students
Delivery and devices would be jointly planned. One way to meet the proposed weekly time is a 90-minute facilitated session plus 30–60 minutes of optional or guided extension. A partner offering shorter sessions would have a redesigned format, confirmed before anything is advertised.
Curriculum at a glance
Six themes, six student artifacts.
| Week | Theme | Essential focus | Student artifact |

Vendor-neutral by design
Students learn transferable ideas using examples from Microsoft Copilot, OpenAI ChatGPT, Google Gemini and Anthropic Claude. These are conceptual examples, not endorsements or partnerships. Students are not required to create accounts or use live tools.
Tool selection, student permissions, supervision, acceptable use and data handling would be agreed with each partner and follow applicable law and district policy.
How learning would be reviewed
A four-part rubric, used internally: AI understanding, responsible design, problem solving, and communication and collaboration.
Suggested pilot evidence is aggregated: attendance and completion, artifacts completed, anonymous confidence checks and partner feedback. Student identifiers would not be collected for marketing.
Why it matters
Students practice critical thinking, collaboration, technology confidence and presentation skills while exploring AI’s role in careers and local industries.
