The Stories AI Tells
Are Not Neutral.

Civics Remix teaches the generation most impacted by AI to identify bias, question systems, and demand better answers — through interactive curriculum, Socratic peer discussion, and the humanities, modernized.

What Is the Remix?

Classical civics asked: who holds power and how do citizens hold them accountable? Civics Remix asks the same question — about AI.

We take the oldest tools of civic education — Socratic dialogue, primary sources, the Harkness circle — and remix them with the skills the AI era actually requires. Prompt engineering. Bias detection. The ability to ask: whose story is this algorithm telling, and whose is it leaving out.

Ancient questions. Modern systems. Young people doing the asking.

Why It Matters

The Humanities, Modernized for the AI Generation

The training data that teaches machines what the world looks like reflects whose stories got documented, and whose did not. The aiEDU and Burning Glass Institute report Which Skills Matter Now? identifies the ability to question AI outputs as one of the highest-leverage skills for the next generation of workers and citizens. That skill is not built into AI tools. It has to be taught.

Civics Remix gives students the tools to interrogate those systems: prompt engineering to test AI responses, Harkness peer discussion to challenge assumptions, and classical and modern texts to ground the conversation in history.

  • Identify and correct AI bias through hands-on prompt engineering
  • Develop civic voice through structured Harkness peer discussion
  • Connect historical narratives to present-day AI systems
  • Build the critical thinking skills that no algorithm can replace
