What is AI?
Students learn what defines AI, how it is used, how it plans to be used, and the social and ethical implications of its use in society. |
Data and Artificial Intelligence
Students learn how data is stored digitally, how to use spreadsheets to organize and analyze data, and how big data is used in artificial intelligence. |
Basic Python and Console Interaction
Students learn the basics of programming by writing programs that interact with users through the keyboard. |
Conditionals
Students teach their programs to make decisions based on the information it receives. |
Looping
Students learn how to write more efficient code by using loops as shortcuts. |
Functions and Exceptions
Students learn how their programs can be decomposed into smaller pieces that work together to solve a problem. |
Project: Create a Chatbot
Students learn how chatbots use artificial intelligence and use the Design Thinking Process to create a rule-based, informational chatbot on a topic of their choice. |
Strings
Students use more sophisticated strategies for manipulating text in their programs - slicing, concatenating, and formatting. |
Creating and Altering Data Structures
Students learn how tuples and lists are formed and the various methods that can alter them. |
Project: AI and Gaming
Students learn how AI is used in gaming. Students use their understanding of data structures to develop a tic tac toe game with a non-player character. |
