AI in My Life
Students identify AI-powered devices and apps they use every day.
AI awarenessReal-world AI
✎Sample Exercise: AI Scavenger Hunt
Look around your home and list AI-powered items:
- •Voice assistants (Alexa, Siri, Google Assistant)
- •Smart TV recommendations
- •Spam filters in email
- •Autocorrect on your phone
- •Face unlock on devices
- •YouTube/Netflix recommendations
💡 Think About: For each item, answer: How does AI help this work better?
Grades 6-7Worksheet25-35 minutes
Pattern Detective
Practice finding patterns in data, just like AI does.
Pattern recognitionData analysis
✎Sample Exercise: Find the Pattern
Complete the sequences:
- •2, 4, 6, 8, ?, ? (Answer: 10, 12)
- •A, C, E, G, ?, ? (Answer: I, K)
- •🍎🍌🍎🍌🍎? (Answer: 🍌)
- •Red, Blue, Red, Blue, Red, ? (Answer: Blue)
💡 Think About: How do you think a computer would find these patterns?

Build a Decision Tree
Create a flowchart that makes decisions like an AI algorithm.
AlgorithmsDecision makingClassification
✎Sample Exercise: Is It a Fruit or Vegetable?
Create yes/no questions to classify foods:
- •Start → Is it sweet? → Yes → Likely a fruit
- •Start → Is it sweet? → No → Does it have seeds inside?
- •→ Yes → Still might be a fruit! → No → Likely a vegetable
💡 Think About: Create your own decision tree to classify: Animals (mammal, bird, fish, reptile)

Training Data Challenge
Learn how the quality of training data affects AI predictions.
Machine learningData qualityBias
✎Sample Exercise: Good Data vs Bad Data
You're training an AI to recognize cats. Which training set is better?
- •Set A: 100 photos of orange tabby cats
- •Set B: 100 photos of different cat breeds, colors, and poses
- •Set C: 50 cat photos, 50 dog photos labeled as cats
💡 Think About: Why would Set B produce the best AI? What happens if you use Set A or Set C?
Grades 9-10Discussion Guide40-50 minutes
AI Ethics Scenarios
Discuss ethical dilemmas in AI development and usage.
AI ethicsCritical thinkingBiasPrivacy
✎Sample Scenario: The Self-Driving Car Dilemma
Discuss this situation:
- •A self-driving car's brakes fail. It must choose between:
- •Option A: Swerve left and hit 1 pedestrian
- •Option B: Swerve right and hit 3 pedestrians
- •Option C: Continue straight and crash into a wall, harming the passenger
💡 Think About: Who decides what the AI should do? The programmer? The car owner? The government?
Grades 10-11Worksheet35-45 minutes
Neural Network Basics
Understand how neurons connect and process information.
Neural networksDeep learningWeights
✎Sample Exercise: Human Neural Network Game
Play this with classmates:
- •5-6 students stand in a line (these are "neurons")
- •First student receives a number (the "input")
- •Each student multiplies by a secret number (their "weight")
- •Pass the result to the next student
- •Final student announces the output
- •Try to guess each student's weight!
💡 Think About: How is this similar to how real neural networks process information?

Bias in AI Investigation
Explore how bias can appear in AI systems and its real-world impact.
AI biasFairnessEthicsSocial impact
✎Sample Case Study: Resume Screening AI
Analyze this real-world example:
- •A company built an AI to screen job applications
- •It was trained on 10 years of hiring data
- •The AI learned to reject resumes with the word "women's" (e.g., "women's chess club")
- •It also downgraded graduates of all-women's colleges
💡 Think About: What went wrong? How could this have been prevented? Who was harmed?
Grades 11-12Research Activity45-60 minutes
AI Career Explorer
Research AI careers and the skills needed for each role.
Career planningAI jobsFuture skills
✎Sample Research Task: AI Career Profiles
Research and compare these AI careers:
- •Machine Learning Engineer: What do they build?
- •Data Scientist: What problems do they solve?
- •AI Research Scientist: What do they discover?
- •AI Ethics Officer: What do they protect?
- •Robotics Engineer: What do they create?
💡 Think About: For each career: What education is needed? What skills? What is the typical salary?
