DescriptionGrantsExpenses
The computational Thinking Initiative (CTI) is a K12 educational program that aims to teach computational thinking via volunteer-led programming experiences. Our mission is to empower learners and educators with the resources, training and technology they need to generate meaningful learning experiences and outcomes. CTI achieves this goal through a network of "AI Leagues", which are extra-curricular programs that meet regularly and provide learners with instruction, exploration and real projects to work on. CTI actively supports Leagues by providing curriculum, sponsoring technology licenses for all learners, teacher training and maintaining a dedicated point of contact within our organization and the AI league to offer continued guidance. In 2019, the Foundation Accomplished: Sponsorship of new AI Leagues: CTI helped establish three new AI Leagues - in Shanghai, Stanford and San Diego respectively. We provided training to educators, sponsored several dozen technology licenses, and of-$2,034
