Today, we are going to explore an exciting tool called Teachable Machine. This platform allows you to create your own machine learning models easily. What do you think machine learning is?
Is it when computers learn from data and improve over time?
Exactly! ML is all about teaching computers using data. Teachable Machine lets you do this without coding. Can anyone guess why this is important for beginners?
Because it makes it easier to understand and experiment without being overwhelmed by coding!
Right! It's about making learning accessible. We should remember this as 'BEE': Beginner-Friendly, Engaging, Easy-to-use. Can anyone suggest what we might be able to do with this tool?
Could we create an emoji generator?
Yes! That's a brilliant example. You can train the model for image classification to recognize facial expressions and map them to emojis. Let's summarize: Teachable Machine is a fun, easy way to explore machine learning.

• Can export models to TensorFlow for advanced use.
Detailed Explanation
Once students have created their models in Teachable Machine, they can export them to TensorFlow, a powerful framework used for more complex machine learning tasks. This capability allows students to build on their initial projects, adapting and expanding their learning to deeper levels of AI development.
Examples & Analogies
Consider building a LEGO structure. Initially, you create a simple design. After mastering that, you can export your knowledge and build more complex designs with your existing pieces. Similarly, with Teachable Machine, once students grasp basic model training, they can leverage that knowledge to delve into more advanced AI applications using TensorFlow.
