Full transcription available at http://heartsofgoldpodcast.com/ In this episode of Hearts of Gold, we hear from Jaansi, a 15-year-old Girl Scout and proud Gold Award winner. Jaansi shares her project, Project Neurify, which aims to make AI education accessible to all. She fundraised through a workshop and used the money to build a website with a free video curriculum and curated resources. Despite starting her project before ChatGPT became popular, Jaansi's timely focus on AI education is commendable. Tune in to learn more about her inspiring journey. More about Jaansi: Jaansi is a Girl Scout from New Jersey attending Phillips Exeter Academy. She has been a Girl Scout for nearly a decade, beginning her journey as a Daisy in kindergarten. Her Gold Award initiative, Project Neurify, is a free online curriculum with helpful videos and curated resource lists that provide a platform for computer science and artificial intelligence education to be available for anyone and everyone. Jaansi has also completed her Bronze and Silver Awards. She is passionate about making mental health and computer science education more accessible, especially for marginalized communities. Outside of Girl Scouts, Jaansi runs a podcast of her own, LearnOn Podcast.

She fundraised through a workshop and used the funds to build a website with a free video curriculum and curated resources. Her fascination inspired Jaansi's project with artificial intelligence in medicine and her awareness of the lack of accessibility and representation in higher computer science education. She wanted to provide a more comprehensive and accessible teaching curriculum for those who may be socioeconomically disadvantaged. Jaansi faced challenges in running her project virtually and had to find ways to establish a human connection with her team of volunteers. She used communication platforms like Discord and organization tools like Notion to keep everyone connected and accountable. Documenting everything was also crucial for her final report and for cherishing the journey of her project. Share this show with your friends on Twitter.
