What teachers say about AI with Code.org:
My students learned that they don't have to just be consumers when it comes to technological advances that they are experiencing on almost a daily basis. They can actually be creators!
Betia Bentley • CS Discoveries Teacher
This lesson also gave my students the opportunity to see that there is an element of opinion in classification systems. Later, when we started to see how bias can end up in AI, I was able to pull them back and remind them that the data used to train their models was based on choices.
