Thank you to all of the 23 high school students and 11 undergraduate students from NY, CT, & NJ who participated in the AI & Education Symposium last Saturday! Our High School Student Leaders were elected by their schools for excellence in computer science and related fields.

With the support from undergraduate mentors, high school students created topical questions for the panelists. High School students were the only audience members who were able to ask questions and they did a fabulous job!

Participating high school students will have the opportunity to apply to paid Edtech-related summer internships. MeshEd will coach these students through the application process and continue to coach them post-internship so that students can update their resumes and research their next work opportunity.

We are so grateful to have a community of undergraduate and high school students who are informed about ethical and creative uses of AI for learning.
