Session description

Don't let a lack of devices or age restrictions stop your school's AI literacy initiative. This session showcases ready-to-use, hands-on AI activities that require no computers or internet access. Let's explore how simple materials can teach complex concepts like Machine Learning, Bias, and Algorithms through engaging games.

Outline

The poster will be visually structured around Unplugged Activities with clear instructions, grade-level suggestions, and links to the AI concept they address.
As attendees approach the poster, I will use one of the activities as a mini-demonstration. For instance, asking them to sort a few cards based on a hidden rule to illustrate the "AI Classifier" concept. The main goal is to be highly interactive, leading short demonstrations for small groups.
