What Does It Mean to Teach AI?
Artificial Intelligence is a part of our everyday lives. From facial recognition to voice assistants, AI is powering the tools students use daily. But for middle and high school students, these advancements can feel like magic rather than technology. For educators, the challenge of introducing these concepts is twofold: how do you introduce complex AI topics in a way that’s age-appropriate and truly meaningful?
That’s where LocoRobo’s Intro to AI Concepts comes in—a case-based, problem-based course designed to provide a solid foundation in AI through hands-on learning and real-world relevance.
What Makes This Course Different?
- Hands-On & Case-Based
Students dive into real-world scenarios involving machine learning, natural language processing, and computer vision, building problem-solving skills and critical thinking skills through guided challenges. - Human-Centered AI
From ethics and bias to trust and explainability, students learn that AI is more than algorithms; it’s a human issue, too. - Built for Classrooms
The course is plug-and-play, designed to fit into your existing middle or high school curriculum without requiring AI expertise.
What Students Learn
This is about helping students think critically about how AI systems are built, how they learn, and how they impact the world around us.
From understanding how machines recognize images and generate speech to exploring the role of bias and ethics in automated decision-making, students dive into essential topics that define the future of technology, including:
- Machine Learning and Deep Learning
- Natural Language Processing (NLP)
- Computer Vision and Speech Synthesis
- Explainable AI
- Human-AI Interaction, Bias, Ethics, and Trust
Real-World AI, Made Accessible
AI is already reshaping fields like transportation, medicine, and media, and today’s students will shape where it goes next. But without foundational understanding, students risk becoming passive consumers of AI rather than critical thinkers and creators.
LocoRobo’s Intro to AI Concepts equips students with the mindset and tools to be future-ready—technically, creatively, and ethically.
Built by Educators, for Educators
Even educators with limited AI experience can confidently introduce AI in the classroom. LocoRobo provides plug-and-play resources, real-world case studies, and ongoing support to make classroom implementation smooth and successful.
LocoRobo’s AI Courses for K-12 make it easier than ever to give your students a powerful head start in understanding and responsibly shaping the future of AI.
