Thousands of high school students across Florida will embark on artificial intelligence coursework this coming school year, strengthening efforts by Florida public school officials and the University of Florida to equip the state's youth with the essential skills required for an AI-enabled workforce. The UF-designed AI education program was piloted last year in three Florida public school districts with successful results, leading to the program's expansion to 12 districts beginning this month. Nancy Ruzycki, an instructional and associate professor at UF's Herbert Wertheim College of Engineering, is one of the architects of the three-year coursework called AI Foundations, which is delivered through the state's Career and Technical Education, or CTE, programs.
