AABoard publishes Pilot Framework Version 1.0 on Zenodo

Published February 25, 2025 | Version 1.0

AABoard has published AAB Pilot Framework Version 1.0 on Zenodo, giving the framework a persistent public record and DOI for citation, review, and reuse.

The framework establishes how AABoard-affiliated and partner-submitted AI education pilots should be reviewed, aligned, implemented, monitored, documented, and closed. It supports pilot hosts, implementation teams, reviewers, funders, educators, and registry editors who need a consistent process for turning pilot activity into evidence that can be reviewed and compared.

A citable framework for AI education pilots

The Zenodo publication gives AABoard's pilot framework a stable citation layer outside the website. Researchers, partners, and reviewers can cite the framework directly when describing pilot governance, documentation expectations, evidence artifacts, and registry decisions.

What the framework defines

The framework describes a structured lifecycle for AI education pilots, including internal review, preparation and alignment, training and readiness, implementation and monitoring, and final summary and registry decision. It also recognizes follow-up and sustainment work when a pilot continues beyond the initial implementation cycle.

The framework applies across K-12, teacher professional development, adult and workforce learning, community education, public programmes, and physical AI or robotics-enabled AI literacy pilots.

Why this matters

AI education pilots often generate useful local learning, but that learning can be difficult to compare when evidence artifacts, phase status, safeguards, implementation notes, and registry decisions are not documented consistently.

By publishing the framework with a DOI, AABoard strengthens the public evidence infrastructure needed to connect pilot practice with later case synthesis, standards development, policy briefs, and consensus reports.

Responsible use

Publication of the framework does not mean every pilot listed by AABoard is endorsed, certified, or approved. The framework is a governance and documentation tool. Registry decisions and evidence claims still depend on the quality, completeness, and source trace of each pilot record.
