Multimodal Futures: Responsible AI for Equitable, Multilingual STEM Education Across Global Contexts

Spring 2026 GPOD Recipient
Research by:

Artificial Intelligence (AI) is reshaping education, yet most AI in Education (AIED) systems are built on Western, monolingual, and individualistic models of learning that overlook the diverse ways students engage in STEM practices. The Global Responsible AI in Education Collaborative reimagines AIED through multimodal, multilingual, and globally grounded lenses, leveraging AI to make the invisible visible and the silenced heard. This participatory design project brings together researchers, practitioners, community partners, and families from four hubs, Virginia, New Mexico, Brazil, and South Korea, to examine how AI can support more equitable K-12 STEM education and develop research priorities and actionable guidelines for stakeholders.
