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. Summary of 2020 CTI Projects: Sponsorship of AI Leagues: CTI currently supports three AI Leagues in Shanghai, Stanford, and San Diego. We provide training, several dozen free software licenses, and offer a dedicated point of contact at Wolfram to pr-$0
The Wolfram Physics Project (WPP) is an international basic research collaboration, based upon an "open science" philosophy, with open access to all scientific publications, software tools, working sessions and databases. The scientific vision of the WPP is grounded in a novel computational paradigm to fundamental physics, as well as both theoretical computer science and related areas of pure and applied mathematics. The WPP currently supports more than 40 unpaid temporary research affiliate positions, as well as longer-term research fellowship positions, spanning around 15 different countries and representing around 25 different universities and other research institutes. The WPP works closely with university departments and major international research centers to provide academic support and supervision for academic research projects for graduate and undergraduate students (including high school seniors transitioning into university programs), postdoctoral fellows, early-career resea-$0
