Foundation for AI Literacy for classroom
Lesson 1: What is AI?
Our beginner-friendly AI lessons for students and teacher make artificial intelligence fun and accessible. Through hands-on activities, kids learn the difference between natural and artificial things, explore how machines "see" and "hear" using sensors, and even design their own AI robot. This playful approach builds early curiosity and confidence in AI, while encouraging creativity and real-world thinking. Perfect for schools starting AI education at the foundational level.
Lesson 2: What is Machine Learning?
In this lesson, students are introduced to the basics of machine learning. They discover how machines learn from data—called datasets—to make predictions and decisions. Through simple, engaging examples, learners explore key terms like bias, dataset, and prediction, gaining insight into how machines become "intelligent." This session builds a strong foundation for understanding how AI works in the real world.
Lesson 3: Understanding Algorithms?
In this lesson, students and teachers learn what an algorithm is and how to create one using simple, real-world examples. Through engaging, hands-on activities, learners explore how algorithms follow step-by-step rules to solve problems—just like a recipe. Students identify inputs, processes, and outputs, and even practice debugging their own instructions. Ideal for building foundational thinking in AI and computer science, this lesson supports both younger and older learners in UAE schools.
Lesson 4: Train your own Machine!
In this interactive lesson, students use Google’s Teachable Machine to train their own AI models—no coding required! They learn how to create a dataset, train the machine to recognize patterns, and watch it make real-time predictions. This hands-on activity brings AI to life, helping students understand how machines learn from data and make decisions. Perfect for schools in the UAE looking to give students practical, fun exposure to real-world AI tools.
Lesson 5: Bias in AI
This lesson introduces students and teachers to the concept of bias in AI and why perspective matters when designing technology. Learners explore how algorithms can reflect human bias, why this happens in machine learning, and how to identify and prevent it. Through discussion and real-world examples, students gain a foundational understanding of ethical, responsible AI use—an essential part of any modern AI curriculum for schools in the UAE and beyond.
Lesson 6: What is Generative AI?
In this lesson, students and teachers explore the difference between AI that classifies and predicts, and generative AI that creates new content like images, text, and sounds. Using real-world examples and hands-on activities, learners discover how generative AI works by recognizing patterns in data. The session encourages critical thinking as students reflect on the ethical use of AI-generated content and identify its impact across industries. A must-have lesson for any modern AI curriculum in schools across the UAE and GCC.
Lesson 7: Generating Images with AI?
In this creative lesson, students and teachers explore how AI generates images using two powerful methods: trial-and-error (Generative Adversarial Networks or GANs) and refining random noise (Diffusion Models). Through simplified activities, learners mimic these processes and compare them to human creativity. Students will discuss what it means to be creative and reflect on how AI’s image generation compares to human artistic expression. A unique and engaging way to bring AI and art together in UAE school classrooms.
Lesson 8: Understanding Deepfakes and AI Safety?
In this important lesson, students and teachers explore the rise of deepfakes—AI-generated images, videos, and voices that appear real but are not. They will examine both the creative potential and ethical risks of AI-generated content. Through guided discussions and practical examples, students learn how to spot deepfakes and develop simple guidelines to reduce harm and misinformation. This session equips students with critical thinking skills for navigating AI safely and responsibly in a digital world.
Lesson 9: AI and Ethics?
In this thought-provoking lesson, students dive into the ethical questions surrounding artificial intelligence. They explore real-life scenarios where AI decisions impact people’s lives and discuss fairness, accountability, privacy, and responsibility. Through interactive case studies and group activities, learners reflect on how we can build and use AI systems that are ethical, inclusive, and aligned with human values. A key lesson for shaping responsible digital citizens in UAE schools and beyond.
