Sample IT Activities (Secondary Schools)

Artificial Intelligence Theory and Practical Course

Objective:
The world is changing at such an unprecedented rate that AI is now engrained in every aspect of our lives. No matter what career path your student choose to pursue, it is nice to learn more about AI and understand the fundamentals as it will be an indispensable tool in their work and daily lives. To provide students with an understanding of AI theories and fundamentals, and give them the opportunities to experiment with different AI applications using robotic learning tool and AI experiential platform.

Description:
Students can learn about the basic applications of AI technologies just like any other basic skill. The AI experiential platform and the robotic learning tool allow students to develop and apply their own AI algorithm. This is to foster students’ imagination and creativity through hands-on experience.
