In today’s rapidly evolving digital age, Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Machine Learning (ML) stand as monumental breakthroughs, reshaping industries and redefining what’s possible. From ChatGPT, which can converse with us seamlessly, to Tesla’s self-driving cars that navigate bustling city streets on their own, the marvels of AI and ML are evident everywhere. Our course offers young minds a unique opportunity to delve into this exhilarating world. Tailored specifically for middle and high school students, our curriculum demystifies these advanced technologies, making them both accessible and captivating. By exploring real-world examples and fostering a deep understanding of AI and ML, we’re not just teaching students about today’s tech innovations; we’re equipping them for tomorrow’s challenges.

Technologies

Technologies utilized in this class

  1. Python programming language. This is not an Introduction To Python course. Strong familiarity with Python is the pre-requisite of this class. Ideally, you should have already taken Introduction To Python and Python OOP courses from my school.
  2. Fast.AI python library.
  3. Kaggle Jupiter notebooks.

Projects

In AYC Logic coding school, we want to introduce our students to the world of AI and ML by creating interesting and appealing projects like the following:

Image recognition

Create a machine learning program that can recognize if it is an image of bird or not a bird. Hotdog or not a hotdog.

Number handwriting recognition

Create a machine learning program that can recognize your number handwriting.

Sinking Titanic Passenger Survival Rate

The tragic event of the Titanic’s sinking remains one of the most notable maritime disasters in history.

On its inaugural journey on April 15, 1912, the RMS Titanic, often believed to be “indestructible,” met its fate by striking an iceberg. Regrettably, due to a shortage of lifeboats, 1502 of the 2224 passengers and crew members lost their lives.

Survival did have an element of chance, but it appears that certain groups had a higher likelihood of survival than others.

In this task, we invite you to develop a model to predict: “Which types of individuals had a better chance of survival?” utilizing details from the passenger list, such as names, ages, genders, socio-economic backgrounds, and more.
