Description
Students imagine the world of tomorrow with artificial intelligence for kids lessons. They create a one-of-a-kind interactive story incorporating Artificial Intelligence into an illustrated digital story of daily life in the future.
Artificial Intelligence for Kids
Students play the role of futurists. They study emerging technologies to envision how people might live, learn, work, play, communicate, and travel in the future. They imagine innovative solutions that could be a part of daily life. Then they portray these ideas in a creative, non-linear set of story slides.
PowerPoint and Google Slides Lesson Plans
Create a “Choose Your Own Adventure” interactive story. Students create a science fiction slide show. The creation allows readers to make choices from imagined ideas that may exist in tomorrow’s world. Using action buttons to trigger alternative plot lines, the viewer decides how the future will unfold.
