Curriculum and AI tools for migrant education
A structured, multilingual curriculum framework for Burmese migrant students in Thailand — with a standards alignment layer and AI tools designed to keep teachers and the official curriculum in sync.
This is an active development project. We are building toward a teacher-facing AI that provides standards-aligned support in resource-limited classroom settings.
Access the curriculumStructured Curriculum
37 thematic modules at Level 1 — each with five daily lesson plans across six subject areas: Math, Science, Phonics, Literacy, Civics, and Life Skills. Content delivered in Thai, Burmese, and English.
ATLAS — Standards Alignment
An AI curriculum assistant that reads, writes, and refines activities — maintaining traceable links between every lesson and Thailand's NFE and BECC frameworks. Over 2,700 standard links, human-reviewable through a change management workflow.
BEACON — Teacher Support AI
A standards-aligned AI assistant for teachers in resource-limited settings. Grounded in local classroom context, bounded by pedagogical principles, and designed to give consistent, standards-linked advice without drift — so teachers in under-resourced areas have a reliable instructional guide.
The Architecture
Built to maintain parity between the teacher and the standards
The core of migrantliteracy.org is a persistent standards scaffolding layer — a structured web of links connecting every curriculum activity to the official Thai NFE and BECC frameworks that govern non-formal education. This is not a post-hoc labelling exercise; it is the structural foundation the platform is built on.
ATLAS, the AI curriculum assistant, operates inside this scaffolding. When it reads or edits an activity, it works within a context that includes the relevant standards, the classroom conditions stored in teaching context memory, and a full audit trail of every change made. This ensures that AI assistance enhances rather than undermines standards alignment.
The teacher support tool under development extends this logic to the classroom. Teachers will have access to an AI that understands their local context — class size, student demographics, available materials, language environment — and that gives advice which is both pedagogically sound and demonstrably connected to the standards their students are working toward.

Collaborate
This project is looking for partners
We are seeking educators, researchers, and organisations who share an interest in AI-supported instruction for migrant and under-resourced learning communities. If you work on curriculum design, non-formal education, or applied AI in education, we would like to hear from you.
