Abstract: This study details the development of CATpc (Critical Activity Teacher Planning Companion), an AI chatbot designed to support teachers in creating culturally relevant STEM education. Through a community engaged process with family members and teachers, we identified key requirements. These insights guided the modification of a Llama 3 8B model, incorporating culturally relevant education principles. Participants highlight the potential for AI to support more inclusive and culturally responsive STEM education while reducing teachers’ administrative burden.
