The Florida Center for Research in STEM (FCR-STEM) is leading the workforce and educational development FSU’s InSPIRE (Institute for Strategic Partnerships, Innovation, Research, and Education) project. In June, the FCR-STEM staff conducted eight week-long professional learning courses throughout Coastal Northwest Florida. All the courses focused on AI and robotics and were provided free of charge as part of InSPIRE at FSU, a program funded by Triumph Gulf Coast.
FCR-STEM staff will conduct seven professional learning courses for Gulf Coast teachers from June 2 to June 27. All the courses will focus on AI and robotics and will be provided for free as part of the Innovation for Strategic Partnerships for Innovation, Research and Education (InSPIRE) at FSU, a program funded by Triumph Gulf Coast.
The FSU InSPIRE workforce development team received formal recognition for excellence in innovative education with the Ralph Stair Prize. A crucial part of InSPIRE’s mission, Carrie Meyers and Jim Reynolds co-lead the winning workforce development team together.
The Florida Center for Research in STEM (FCR-STEM) was created by the Florida Legislature and competitively awarded to Florida State University in 2006. Housed inside the Learning Systems Institute (LSI), FCR-STEM is shaping the future of STEM education in Florida from the panhandle to the peninsula.
After 20 hours of virtual instruction, teachers from Florida’s panhandle counties are returning to their classrooms with cutting-edge skills in AI Prompt Engineering. The AIENGIN102 course, "Leveraging AI Prompt Engineering for Engineering Design Pedagogy," is part of FSU’s InSPIRE activity and was administered by staff at Florida State University’s Learning Systems Institute (LSI).
