This course introduces teenagers to the exciting world of Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Machine Learning (ML) in a fun and easy-to-understand way. Students will learn the core building blocks — Data, Algorithms, and Models — through relatable examples, colorful diagrams, and hands-on mini projects. The course explores how machines learn patterns, make predictions, and impact daily life, while also addressing challenges like bias and the importance of ethics in AI.

By the end of the course, learners will:

• Understand the roles of data, algorithms, and models in AI.

• Explore examples like movie recommendations, snack choices, and sorting tasks.

• Recognize key challenges such as overfitting and bias.

• Appreciate ethical principles in AI (privacy, fairness, accountability).

• Build simple rule-based models and practice with mini projects.

This course is designed to spark curiosity, encourage creativity, and give teens the confidence to explore AI & ML further in their studies and everyday lives.
