Inside the pack
Five sessions, three ideas
The Robot Shop
Whether a job should go to a machine at all, and what a machine costs beyond the coins you pay it.
The Safari
Where a guessing machine is already at work in the class's own day, kept up as a habit for the rest of the term.
The Robot Who Learned Wrong
A machine knows only what its examples taught it, and a class that has watched one learn the wrong thing remembers it.
The Impossible Question
The questions a machine cannot answer, and why a person is still the one who has to.
The Rules of This Room
The class writes and signs its own agreement for working with machines.
What a child takes away
- Engage with AI 1
- Recognising where AI already is, in the ordinary things a class does every day.
- Engage with AI 2
- A machine learns from its examples and nothing else — carried in one portable question: “what were its examples?”
- Manage AI 1
- Deciding whether a job should go to a machine, and being able to say why.
Two ways to open it
Your access link opens the pack online and as a printable PDF, with each session's printables at the end of that session.
