Is your child interested in STEM? Do they enjoy solving challenging problems?

The NSF AI Institute for Student-AI Teaming at CU Boulder is recruiting students 12–17 years old to participate in a study investigating collaborative problem solving in science, technology, engineering and mathematics domains. 

In the study your child will be working with other participants on a series of group problem-solving tasks. During the study, researchers will use cameras and microphones to record the group’s interaction as they work through the task. They will also use eye tracking to measure your child’s gaze patterns during the experiment.

The studies will last 2.5 hours each, and participants will be compensated $25 per hour ($62.50 total). You will not get course credit for this study. Research will take place at the Center for Innovation and Technology (CINC Room 184G) located at 1777 Exposition Drive. 

If your child is interested in participating in the study, please sign up. Collecting video and audio data of your child and their group’s interactions is mandatory for this study. If you do not want your child to be recorded with video and microphone, you may decide not to participate in this study at any time. You will be sent a parent permission form and an online student assent form for your child to complete prior to the study, as well as a debriefing form after the study to the email you provide. Documents may also be completed in person. Your child does not have to participate, and they can stop participating at any time.

Pease feel free to email isat.lab@colorado.edu with any questions.

Housing costs in Boulder have been consistently rising for years, and the city is trying to address affordability in a variety of ways. Colorado is also experiencing housing challenges where supply has fallen short of demand.

One approach is to adjust the city’s land use code to expand opportunities for housing. This is one of the City Council's work program priority projects for 2024–25. The goal of the Family-Friendly Vibrant Neighborhoods project is to focus on inclusion and help increase housing affordability, enabling more people to stay in or move to Boulder.

Last year, the Department of Education created an on-ramp to student loan repayment by providing an additional grace period for borrowers who may have been unable to begin repaying their loans immediately. During this period, borrowers have been able to make partial or late payments and miss payments without the associated consequences or negative credit reports. This period of protection ends on Sept. 30.
