AI Classroom Edge Intelligence is a privacy-first classroom AI platform built for schools that need useful AI without sending every piece of student information to the cloud. The platform evaluates each task by privacy level, connectivity, and complexity, then routes it to Offline Edge Mode, a Local Classroom Server, or Fireworks AI Cloud Assist. Sensitive or restricted information stays local. Eligible anonymized, high-complexity tasks are sent through a secure Express backend to Fireworks Serverless using Qwen3.7 Plus. The project includes an AMD Model Router, Edge Runtime Monitor, Rural Connectivity Simulator, Privacy and Local Data Ownership Console, Classroom Digital Twin, and teacher approval workflow. Live results display the provider, model, route, privacy classification, latency, safety note, and AI response. API keys remain server-side, and the privacy guard blocks sensitive requests from cloud inference. The project was inspired by rural schools where connectivity can be unreliable and student privacy is critical. Instead of acting as a simple chatbot, it serves as an intelligent routing and decision-support system. Teachers review, edit, approve, or reject recommendations before instructional actions are recorded. The current implementation includes a working browser interface, real backend routing, live Fireworks Serverless integration, server-side key protection, and Docker containerization. Local AMD AI PC inference, GPU/NPU acceleration, device telemetry, and production synchronization are clearly identified as future work. The long-term vision is a school-owned AI platform combining local intelligence, optional cloud reasoning, persistent classroom evidence, and teacher oversight for rural and underserved communities.
