CBSE AI curriculum to be prepared by IBM - Times of India

BENGALURU: The Central Board of Secondary Education (CBSE) had earlier announced the introduction of Artificial Intelligence (AI) as an elective for students in classes 9 to 12. The curriculum for the subject is now being developed from scratch by a team from IBM India along with members of its global team and other subject experts. To begin with, IBM will conduct a pilot project in 1,000 schools in Bengaluru, Delhi, Kolkata, Bhubaneswar, Hyderabad and Chennai, before finalising the curriculum and embedding it in the CBSE curriculum from the next academic year. The pilot is being launched in Delhi on Wednesday. The project will start with creating awareness for school principals, followed by a two-and-a half day training of teachers on the foundational skills for the subject.
