Explore Artificial Intelligence through playful learning
This engaging lesson introduces pupils aged 5–7 to the exciting world of Artificial Intelligence (AI). Using familiar animals and creative activities, children begin to understand how computers learn to recognise things—just like we do!
Through drawing, discussion, and hands-on exploration, pupils discover how computers make decisions, and why variety in training data is important. They’ll even help train a computer to tell the difference between cats and dogs!
