This workshop will explore the emerging technologies of Machine Learning and Artificial Intelligence (ML and AI). Students will get hands-on with various machine-learning tools and build functional machine-learning models with a Teachable Machine that can recognize everyday objects.

In the Skills Workshop, students will take their learning further by curating their own datasets and developing machine learning models to solve real-world problems. Through guided exploration of open-source platforms like Kaggle, students will investigate current datasets, explore trends, and prototype AI-powered solutions in response to real-world needs. 

Workshop objectives and outcomes

  • Awareness of Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning, and how we use them daily.
  • Understand how Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning are used in industry.
  • Understand the basic concepts of Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning.
  • Enable a machine to accurately predict and recognize known objects using Google's Teachable Machine. 
  • Curate and organize datasets through open-source ML communities like Kaggle.*
  • Explore how AI and ML can address real-world challenges through inquiry-based design.*
  • Collaborate to create and present an AI-based prototype or solution.*
