Nearly two years after the launch of ChatGPT, many applications of generative AI aim to automate current teaching & learning models and promote efficiencies in education. Yet, genAI offers a far bolder opportunity to transform the very way people learn: through creation. GenAI now presents learners with the exciting possibility of creating their own virtual worlds, simulations, chatbots, and other expressions of their developing knowledge.

The Stanford Accelerator for Learning and HAI invite proposals exploring genAI’s potential to support learning through creative production, thought, or expression. This includes research on how genAI influences learning-by-making, imaginative exploration, or the development of creative abilities. Projects may target a wide range of creators, such as students, teachers, adults, or families, across various domains including STEM, arts, humanities and social sciences, and in diverse settings such as workplaces, museums, classrooms, and homes. Priority is given to proposals emphasizing creation or creativity in service of learning.

Funding covers early-stage work with scaling potential. We accept three types of proposals: (1) empirical research that investigates questions of genAI and creation (2) design proposals that produce a working prototype of an AI-based tool or intervention or (3) a combination of design and empirical research.

Join us for one of two information sessions that will provide an overview of the grant program and answer applicant questions. Info sessions will be held via Zoom.
