AI Bias Investigation: Trained to Be Wrong | Face Detector Activity Grades 4-8
What would happen if you could WATCH AI bias happen in real time - using real photographs? In this hands-on group investigation, students become AI engineers.

Teaching style
I believe in project based learning as a tool for success. When teaching technology outcomes to students, they are more easily met with success when able to attempt work individually and at their own pace. The teacher then morphs into the role of facilitator and problem solver to help increase the learning potential of the project.
I also believe in the implementation and integration of coding outcomes in early grades to build up the necessary problem solving and critical thinking skills to allow for success in the higher grades.
