Day 9: Digital Citizenship
AI for Oceans
Computer science is about so much more than coding! Learn about artificial intelligence (AI), machine learning, training data, and bias, while exploring ethical issues and how AI can be used to address world problems. Enjoy Code.org's first step in a new journey to teach more about AI. When you use the AI for Oceans activity you are training real machine learning models.
How did this activity make you think about how AI can be used for good in the world?
How can you use the power of AI in your own community positively?
How could artificial intelligence be used to solve a problem in the world?
Below is a slide deck to not only help you learn more about today's content focus, but can also be used for a mini-lesson with students (you may need to modify based on the age of your students, but serves as a starting point). It will include part 1 from above (ENGAGE) as well as part 3 from below (EXTEND).
Note: When viewing the presentation in slide view in Google Slides, make sure to check the "Speaker Notes" section for any sources cited, comments, or additional information.
Explore the Virtual Room below and think about how you might use a room like this type of room with your students. What ideas does your exploration prompt for ideas for your own room? What questions arise during your exploration?
