• FarmBeats for Students - The program combines an affordable hardware kit with curriculum and activities designed to give students hands-on experience in applying precision agriculture techniques to food production. Using an array of sensors, students stream and analyze data in Excel. With Lobe.ai, they build, train, and apply machine learning models to track and inform plant health. There are activities where students setup an agent, and others where they work with a curated big data set. The learning progression enables students to easily see the connections between these modern agriculture tools and the opportunities they afford.

Engage students and help them with BASIC spreadsheet skills by playing Battleship or creating pixel art.
