Tamil Nadu charts AI roadmap for government school students

CHENNAI: The school education department is planning to expand its emerging technologies curriculum — currently implemented under the TN SPARK programme on a pilot basis in about 5,000 schools — to all government schools for students of classes 6 to 8.

Similarly, during the next phase, textbooks would be developed under the curriculum and introduced to students of classes 9 to 12. The proposal was discussed at the first meeting of the high-level curriculum expert committee and curriculum development committee, chaired by Minister for School Education A Rajmohan, held at the Anna Centenary Library on Tuesday.
