The EduCreate AI Lab at the University of South Florida develops AI platforms that support educators, researchers, and institutions in using artificial intelligence responsibly and effectively.
TeacherServer is a free AI platform designed specifically for educators. It provides more than 1,000 AI tools supporting lesson planning, classroom activities, assessment, research, and course design.
The platform runs on a local server for speed and privacy, ensuring that educator and student data are not stored or shared.
TeacherServerPro allows educators to create their own AI wrapper tools without any coding. Users can build custom AI tools tailored to their specific teaching context, then modify, publish, and share them with colleagues, students, or the public.

GrantServer helps researchers and universities identify relevant grant opportunities more efficiently. The platform collects federal and state grant announcements and uses AI to match research project ideas with the most relevant funding opportunities.
Users can also interact with grant descriptions using AI to understand eligibility requirements, deadlines, and project fit.
AI Supported Exam Study is an AI-powered platform for certification and standardized exam preparation. It provides structured courses with modules, lessons, quizzes, and exams aligned to exam competencies.
An integrated AI assistant helps learners review concepts, understand mistakes, and improve performance through guided explanations.
The platform currently supports multiple FTCE subject areas, including Elementary Education (K–6), Computer Science K–12, Professional Education, and Exceptional Student Education.
AI Quiz Builder is an AI-powered platform that helps educators turn readings, handouts, and PDF documents into ready-to-use classroom quizzes. The system generates quiz questions from uploaded materials, allows teachers to review and edit each item, and provides a simple student-facing experience for quiz delivery.
Educators can share quizzes through a direct link or code, while the reporting dashboard tracks student scores, attempt history, and class performance. The platform is designed to reduce quiz creation time while making classroom assessment faster and easier to manage.
AI Phone Call Simulator is a voice-based training platform that helps preservice teachers practice responding to realistic phone conversations with parents and students. Using spoken AI scenarios, the system evaluates communication skills such as empathy, clarity, professionalism, problem-solving, and boundary setting.
Users select from standard and hard-mode scenarios, listen to the AI caller through their browser, and respond verbally using their microphone. The platform transcribes each response and provides structured feedback to help teacher candidates improve how they handle challenging conversations in school settings.
The Course Dropout Monitor uses AI to detect early warning signs that students may be at risk of dropping out. By connecting with Canvas LMS, the system analyzes anonymized course data and alerts instructors when patterns such as missed assignments or sudden grade changes appear.
This allows faculty to intervene early and support students before problems escalate.
ProgramNavigator helps students and prospective applicants explore university programs using artificial intelligence. Instead of searching through long program catalogs, users can ask questions about interests, career goals, or degree levels and receive personalized program recommendations.
The system analyzes university program descriptions and provides clear summaries, helping users quickly identify programs that match their academic and professional goals.
The AI-Integrated IES Practices platform makes evidence-based teaching strategies easier to explore using artificial intelligence. The system uses a retrieval-augmented generation (RAG) approach to allow educators to search and interact with Institute of Education Sciences practice guides.
Educators can quickly find research-based strategies, classroom practices, and instructional recommendations.
