Artificial Intelligence (AI) has been introduced as a subject in classes VIII, IX and X from the session 2019 to 2020 in CBSE schools, said the Union Minister for Human Resource Development (HRD), Dr Ramesh Pokhriyal'Nishank' in a written reply in the Rajya Sabha on 5 December 2019. The initiative has been undertaken in schools affiliated with Central Board of Secondary Education (CBSE) in order to enhance the multidisciplinary approach in teaching-learning and to sensitize the new generation, according to a PIB release. While AI has been introduced as a subject for class IX students, a twelve hours'Inspire' module on artificial intelligence has also been announced, which schools can take up with the students of class VIII. The study material for teaching artificial intelligence in classes VIII and IX has already been provided to schools through the official CBSE website. CBSE has collaborated with several organizations such as Intel, IBM, Microsoft, Private Schools, and so on.
