Junior Artificial Intelligence 1 (Foundation 1) and Junior Artificial Intelligence 2 (Foundation 2)
For ages: 12–15
In this course, students will get an introduction to the world of Artificial Intelligence (AI). They will build their very own AI models using sound, numbers, text and images, and with the latest super-smart technology. This is an excellent choice for children interested in technology, coding and AI. Absolutely no previous programming knowledge is required. It is perfect for beginners who are curious to learn more about one of the hottest and dynamic tech topics around.
Course highlights
Artificial Intelligence in the World Today
Learn how AI is being used in the world right now, from autonomous cars to applications in medicine. We'll explore how these work, as well as the positives and negatives we need to be aware of.
Discover Machine Learning
You'll get to build a game using MIT's Scratch software, and then teach a computer to play it. We'll understand what it takes to build a machine that can learn.
Think about the Machines of the Future
We'll look at the Machines of the Future, such as robots, humanoid androids, nanobots and robot swarms. What are the best ways to use AI and machine learning in these, without adding built-in bias?
Teen Coding Python (Foundation 2) and Teen Coding Python (International GCSE)
For ages: 15–17
Get familiar with Python, one of the most widely used and widely taught programming languages in senior schools, universities and businesses, and learn to code from the ground up. This is a top choice for students studying Computer Science for their GCSEs and want to take their skills to the next level in a fun and supportive environment. Our code-loving instructors develop your programming proficiency by teaching you how to use variables, integers, floats, strings, loops, file I/Os and data structures, as you work on your own challenge-focused projects. You'll leave with confidence to use the Python programming language independently.
