What you'll walk away with

Anyone new to AI who wants clear literacy before (or alongside) coding — teens, classrooms, and self-paced learners. Flexible schedule — designed for ~8 weeks at ~2 sessions/week.

  • Describe how machines sense, represent data, and learn from examples
  • Write clearer prompts and iterate when answers are weak or wrong
  • Verify AI output instead of trusting it — including for schoolwork
