AI is advancing so rapidly that schools will struggle to provide education that is either relevant or up to date through their existing means. Traditional curriculum development cycles can't keep pace with the speed of AI innovation. By the time a lesson plan is approved, the tools have already evolved.
Schools need advisement and counsel to meet the needs of their students. Decision makers face complex questions: How do we teach about AI responsibly? What policies do we need? How do we prepare teachers? These aren't questions that can be answered with a textbook — they require expert guidance tailored to each school's unique context.
Students are not being offered enablement on the actual revolution that is currently occurring with Artificial Intelligence and the ways they can utilize it. While AI reshapes every industry, most students graduate without ever learning how to work alongside these tools. They're observers of the AI revolution, not participants — and that needs to change.
As a new company entering the market, we meet schools exactly where they are — whether you're exploring AI education for the first time or ready to implement hands-on programs.
We know every school has different goals, questions, and concerns when it comes to AI education. Our consulting services help decision makers understand their unique needs and create a clear path forward.
We work with administrators, curriculum directors, and educators to explore questions like: What does AI literacy mean for our students? How do we address parent concerns? What resources do we need? From these conversations, we develop tailored recommendations, deliverables, or program suggestions that fit your school's context and priorities.
For schools ready to dive into hands-on learning, this is our flagship program — teaching students how to supercharge their presentation skills using powerful AI tools.
Kids are already using Google Slides to create fun presentations. Let's supercharge this capability and introduce them to powerful AI tools that they will be using as they enter the workforce — or to create their own companies. This program bridges the gap between what students know today and the AI-powered tools that will define their futures.
Beyond presentations, we're exploring a full curriculum of AI-powered creativity and problem-solving.
Teaching students to bring ideas to life through text-to-image tools.
Using AI to brainstorm, draft, and refine written work responsibly.
Building simple applications with AI assistance — no coding experience required.
Understanding bias, privacy, and responsible AI use from the start.
Learning how to evaluate AI-generated information critically.
Student-driven projects that solve real problems using AI tools.
Stephen Bohnert is a high-tech professional who has spent his career managing telecommunications, big data, and analytics technologies. When the AI revolution began, he didn't just observe from the sidelines — he dove in headfirst, both professionally and personally.
As a parent of three K-12 school-age children, Stephen sees firsthand how students are engaging with AI today — and more importantly, the gap between how they're using it now and how they could be using it tomorrow. This unique vantage point, blending deep technical expertise with the day-to-day reality of raising digital-native kids, is what drives MaiarEducation's mission.
Stephen has built a network of like-minded colleagues across the United States who share his passion for bringing AI education to students. This nationwide network enables MaiarEducation to deliver in-person programs and consulting services wherever schools need support — from coast to coast.
Empowering K-12 students with the AI skills they'll use in the workforce — and to build the companies of tomorrow.
