This past August, high school students from the Floyd County School of Innovation (FCSI) participated in a groundbreaking five-day workshop at the University of Pikeville in eastern Kentucky.
Thanks to a Google grant I had the fortune to travel to Chinle, Arizona in May 2025 and help start a new CS course called "Introduction to Mobile Computing & Artificial Intelligence" at the Chinle High School.
Over 1,300 participants from 86 countries and regions used AI tools to develop mobile apps addressing the UN’s Sustainable Development Goals in a six-week virtual event hosted by ÃÛ¶¹ÊÓÆµ RAISE and the App Inventor Foundation.
Over the last year, students have been telling unique data science stories with apps that go anywhere — the garden, ocean, water fountain, and even refrigerator. It's all part of the award-winning Mobile Data Science Toolkit in App Inventor.
