Ashaware is an AI-powered K–12 curriculum platform — a searchable library of 400,000+ lesson plans built with AI, indexed to curriculum standards across 10+ jurisdictions, and rooted in the complete story of human history, including the African mathematical, scientific, and cultural foundations that most curriculum ignores. Created by Black Board International. The only platform of its kind.
Centuries of mis-education about Black people have not only failed Black students — they have failed every student who inherited a distorted view of human history. Ashaware corrects that, for every student in the classroom. 400,000+ curriculum-indexed lesson plans across 11 subjects, pre-built across 8 reading levels from Kindergarten through Higher Education, and aligned to curriculum standards in Illinois, California, New York, Ontario, Georgia, Ohio, Nevada, Pennsylvania, Nova Scotia, and beyond.
Used in paying schools, universities, homes, libraries, community organizations, and non-profits across North America, the Caribbean, Africa, and the global diaspora. Approved vendor on the Choice Partners National Purchasing Cooperative — no competitive bid required for eligible US institutions.

Ashaware gives every teacher and family instant access to a searchable library of 400,000+ lesson plans rooted in African heritage and human history — across 11 subjects, 8 reading levels, and every grade from Kindergarten through Higher Education. Search, find, teach — in seconds.
Every student who has ever sat in a classroom that taught European history as universal history has been mis-educated. Not just Black students — every student. The gaps, distortions, and omissions in standard K–12 curriculum produce a generation of learners with an incomplete understanding of mathematics, science, art, culture, and history.
Ashaware is built to fix that — grounded in Culturally Relevant Pedagogy (Ladson-Billings), Culturally Responsive Teaching (Geneva Gay), and the research-backed principle that accurate, inclusive curriculum improves outcomes for every student in the room. No additional professional development required. Classroom-ready from day one.

Research consistently shows students perform better when they see themselves in the curriculum. Ashaware improves outcomes for Black students — and builds accurate cultural understanding in every non-Black student alongside them.
Built for every student in the classroom — not just one group. The curriculum gap Ashaware fills is not a Black problem. It is a truth problem. Every non-Black student who has been mis-educated about Black people — their history, their contributions, their mathematical and scientific foundations — is a student Ashaware was built to reach. Truth is not a culturally specific resource. Accuracy is not a DEI initiative. It is a quality standard.
