We printed out some existing cards and had a go at assembling them—looking at how they were constructed, what worked, what made them tricky to put together, and the strength of the models at the end. With this in mind, our students will be designing their very own kit cards next session—and once printed, they will be able to see if they work! We are very excited to see and have a go at their creations. Watch this space!

Have a go at playing against our new AI. With each game, it will get a little better until we hope it can beat any human player. You’ll learn how it learns and (hopefully) see it evolve in real time.

We are looking forward to seeing how the experiment goes!

We had fun showing off our ‘Machine Learning Unplugged’ – a demo as to how AI learns where its brain is managed through different coloured beads! At the beginning of the day, the AI made random choices and the humans could beat it easily. But over a number of rounds through reinforcement learning – adding beads when it won and removing beads when it lost – it became a master of the game and won most rounds.

We also enjoyed showing off our home made Zoetrope which is a great example of how animations work, and our collection of 3d printed bits and bobs – some made by our students!

There was some good attendance and we want to thank the Keki’s Guinea Pig and Rabbit Rescue for running the event and hope that they had a good day fundraising.

We just spotted a new Homeschool Technology Bundle that immediately piqued our interest:

Has anyone else tried these for tech or coding lessons? Would love to hear your thoughts if you’ve used similar bundles!
