Highlights:
Al Meritus is an advanced AI programming course, and upon completion students will have an impressive portfolio of work that demonstrates their skill and understanding of AI. Through project-based learning, students blend theory and experiential learning to develop 21st century skills such as critical thinking, problem solving, and computational skills.
In the course’s 50 lessons and projects, students design apps that address critical real-life situations, such as a security system for people who can’t use smartphones in an emergency. Students also develop practical apps that navigate, predict the weather, and identify human emotion as well as apps that are just plain fun.
These engaging projects not only keep student interest high, they also teach essential AI concepts like perception, machine learning, deep learning KRR, NLP, and neural networks. To aid in the students’ mastery of AI concepts, they will be provided with the following programming languages: S4AIWS Scratch extension, Sn4AIWS Snap AI extension, Machine Learning for Kids, Teachable Machine, Phiro Code mobile app, MIT App inventor.
