Welcome everyone! Today we’ll explore why hands-on projects are essential in learning AI. Can anyone share their thoughts?
I think doing projects helps us understand better than just reading about it.
Exactly! Applying knowledge in real-world scenarios enhances understanding. What do you all think are some skills we can develop through these projects?
Critical thinking and problem-solving!
Creativity, too, because we get to come up with our own ideas.
Great points! Remember, the key focus here is not just learning AI but using it responsibly to address issues like the Sustainable Development Goals. Let’s summarize: hands-on projects in AI develop critical thinking, creativity, and problem-solving skills.
Now, let’s move to our first project—building a basic AI model. What tools do you think we can use for this?
We could use Teachable Machine, right?
Yes! Teachable Machine is an excellent choice. What’s the first step in creating our AI model?
Choosing the type of data we want to use!
Correct! We can work with images, text, or sounds. What is an example of an AI model we could create?
An image classifier to recognize happy faces!
That’s right! So, to recap: choosing data type is the first step, followed by collecting data, training our model, testing, and refining it. Great job, everyone!
Next, let’s dive into solving real-world problems related to Sustainable Development Goals. What types of issues should we consider?
Maybe pollution or water wastage?
Excellent examples! We could use the 4Ws canvas to explore these problems deeper. Can anyone explain what the 4Ws are?
Who, What, Where, and Why!
Correct! By answering these questions, we better understand the issue we want to address. For instance, if we look at air pollution, who is affected?
Local residents!
Great! So, we’re on track. Let’s summarize: identifying real issues and employing the 4Ws canvas helps to clarify our mission in these projects.
Read a summary of the section's main ideas. Choose from Basic, Medium, or Detailed.
The introductory section outlines the importance of experiential learning in AI through projects that engage students in building AI models and solving real-world problems. It underscores the integration of AI with Sustainable Development Goals, encouraging creative, critical thinking, and data literacy.
In the realm of Artificial Intelligence (AI), hands-on experience is pivotal for understanding its concepts and applications. This chapter centers on various projects designed for ninth-grade students, encouraging them to apply their acquired AI knowledge practically. The projects encompass building AI models using user-friendly tools and tackling real-world issues aligned with Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). The initiative aims to foster students' creativity, critical thinking, and problem-solving skills through the lens of AI while also encouraging teamwork and raising awareness regarding global challenges. Students will learn about training AI models, collecting and analyzing data, and proposing innovative solutions, all leading to a deeper understanding of the intersection between technology and sustainability.

In the world of Artificial Intelligence (AI), learning by doing is key. This chapter focuses on applying the knowledge gained in the previous lessons to real-world projects.
The initial idea in this chunk emphasizes the importance of a hands-on approach to learning AI. Instead of just reading or listening, students engage in practical projects that cement their understanding of concepts. This method allows students to apply theoretical knowledge acquired in previous classes directly to real-life scenarios.
Think of learning to ride a bicycle. While reading about how to ride can be informative, you really master the skill by actually getting on the bike and practicing. This approach to AI learning is similar; it encourages exploration through practical application.

These activities are designed to encourage creativity, critical thinking, and problem-solving using AI concepts and tools.
The projects outlined in this introduction are crafted to foster essential skills in students. Creativity is nurtured as they come up with unique solutions, critical thinking is developed as they analyze various problems, and problem-solving skills are honed through hands-on activities. Each project serves as a platform for students to think outside the box and innovate within the scope of AI.
Imagine working on a science fair project where you have to create an experiment. You need to think inventively about your hypothesis, logically analyze your methods, and solve issues as they arise, mirroring the process these AI projects encourage.

Students will also explore how AI can be used to solve problems aligned with Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).
This part introduces an important theme: the connection between AI and the global challenges represented by the Sustainable Development Goals. By exploring this relationship, students are not just learning about technology; they are also understanding its potential to drive social good and create solutions to pressing environmental and societal issues.
Consider how renewable energy technologies can be enhanced using AI to make them more efficient. Just like how solar panels can be optimized for energy capture, AI can improve how we tackle issues like climate change, showing a tangible application of this intersection of learning.
