Cupertino, CA – Monday, September 9, 2025 – Curriki, a pioneering nonprofit founded 20 years ago by Sun Microsystems and CEO Scott McNealy, has long been devoted to building and distributing open-source educational software. Today, Curriki is proud to announce the launch of its most transformative initiative yet: Curriki AI.
Curriki AI is designed to help schools and educators navigate the challenges of artificial intelligence by focusing on three critical areas:
● Courses for Teachers and Students – Self-paced courses for teachers on how to responsibly and effectively integrate AI into instruction, alongside student-focused courses on digital citizenship and responsible classroom use of AI.
● AI Tool Reviews for Educators – Independent, educator-driven evaluations of emerging AI tools to guide schools in choosing resources that genuinely improve teaching and learning.
● Curriki Grants – Direct funding for schools that cannot afford AI tools, ensuring that innovative solutions are within reach for classrooms everywhere.
“There has never been a better way to meet the wide range of learners in a classroom than with artificial intelligence. Curriki AI will help teachers use AI responsibly, give schools confidence through independent reviews, and provide direct funding where it’s needed most. This combination will define the next decade of educational innovation,” said Jonathan Brusco, Executive Director of Curriki.
