  • Number of Students: 1-4 per kit
  • Number of Lessons: 5 Curriculum Options & 13 Robot Builds
  • Hours of Content: 10+

 

Highlights:

Discover the vast potential of uKit AI and empower your students to excel in an AI-driven world.

uKit AI is an all-encompassing STEM, engineering, robotics, coding, and AI solution designed to introduce innovative technology and curriculum into the classroom. Tailored for students in Grades 3-8, uKit AI scales the UKIT series by providing students with immersive hands-on experiences utilizing enhanced technology that integrates real AI, expanded coding platforms, and a multi-tiered curriculum.

Features:

AI Integrated Hardware

uKit AI is equipped with AI integration into the MCB (Main Control Box), including ASR (automatic speech recognition) and NLP (natural language processing). This enables the student to interact with robots through voice controls.

AI-Enabled Software

uKit AI connects with uCode which offers AI interactions in real-time, including Machine Learning model buildings, object recognition, pose recognition, image segmentation, and drawing recognition.  

Brand New AI Curriculum

Throughout the new AI curriculum, students are introduced to key concepts of artificial intelligence by exploring and examining commonly interacted applications of AI. By focusing the curriculum through the lens of application, students can make practical connections to tough concepts through individual experiences.

 

Curriculum or Lesson Plans:

Innovative new curriculum teaching the concepts of artificial intelligence by examining how AI works through commonly used applications and applying learning gains through engaging hands-on activities with robotics and coding.

Flexible AI Module System

Applications of AI is an innovative new curriculum teaching the concepts of artificial intelligence by examining how AI works through commonly used applications and applying learning gains through engaging hands-on activities with robotics and coding. 

Scaffolded through four distinct learning modules intended to make complicated AI concepts accessible and applicable to students in elementary and middle school.

Extension Activities

In addition to the three parts per module, each module features various extension activities intended to dive deeper into AI concepts, including individual lessons on:

  • machine learning
  • neural networks
  • sensors
  • deep fakes
  • chatbots
  • large language models

…and many more.

A Unique Approach

The curriculum is structured in a non-linear approach which encourages educators to create their own teaching journey based on their level of comfort, time constraints, and subject areas. Educators can follow our standard progression or create their own path as all modules are connected and independent.

Example Scenario:

A teacher with limited time wants to teach about data, engage with NLP while also touching on AI ethics.

Their path could be:

Intro to Data → Interact and Build with Language → Extension activity: Examining Bias

 

Additional Curriculum

Coding Curriculum

New for 2024! Scaffolded coding curriculum and lessons offering students the opportunity to learn and explore computer science and AI concepts through hands-on experiences with uKit AI.

Beyond the Classroom

Perfect for camp settings and before/afterschool programs, each unit includes 10 hours of engineering-focused instruction housed within a teacher guide and an accompanying student-facing slideshow. 

Integrated STEM Curriculum

Next Generation Science Standards (NGSS) units for Grades 3-8, including science concepts, engineering design practices, cross-curricular connections, and an interactive digital student notebook.

UKIT Spark Starters

These open-ended challenges allow students the opportunity to build their own robots to complete a specific task. Spark Starters are great for class challenges, makerspaces, camps, before/afterschool clubs, and small group activities. 

AI Foundations Curriculum

Requiring no hardware, this curriculum provides online resources, unplugged activities, and hands-on lessons to teach basic artificial intelligence and computer science concepts.
