Harvard University And Artificial Intelligence
Artificial Intelligence for Middle & High School Students
Artificial Intelligence is the defining technology of our times: in our voice-activated devices, smartphone face recognition systems, and autonomous vehicles. The potential for all students with diverse interests to apply this technology for social good is limitless.
The Learnatory course is modeled after the Harvard University curriculum for middle- and high school students offering interdisciplinary, project-based artificial intelligence enrichment taught by grads from Harvard, Stanford, MIT, and other elite universities.
Explore the different applications of machine learning models and learn how artificial intelligence can help us develop a deeper understanding of language, fight the COVID-19 pandemic, power self-driving cars, and much more.
You will also learn to:
- program AI using Python
- apply algorithms to real-world sets
- discuss AI ethics and applications, and
- complete an instructor-led group project applying AI to a discipline like music, healthcare, astrophysics finance, etc. utilizing the programming skills developed in the course.
AI practitioners and educators from top universities will teach the necessary coding skills to be successful in the system; no prior experience is required. At the end of the course, family and friends will be invited to join a virtual showcase where students will present their final projects.
New York University and Immersive Game Design
Sparking Creativity in Youth & Teens
You love games. You design video game levels in your 3-ring binder and carry it with you everywhere you go. Or you spend entire weekends in your bedroom with your friends challenging the game to beat you.
You create new characters for games and can’t stop doodling ideas for new video game characters - even during class. You bond with those who share your unique perspective of gaming and creative thinking.
Well, guess what? You finally found what you’re looking for. At The Learnatory, Game Design was the very first course we taught over 20 years ago, and we're still going strong. We take games as seriously as you do. We know games are empowering, engrossing, and magical. And we live to understand them better and invent new forms of games that grab the minds of each generation.
Based on the NYU Game Design curriculum, you gain the experience of learning game design from the NYU perspective. NYU, Columbia, and other top university graduates and grad students bring in-depth skills and knowledge to help you learn the fundamentals and intricacies of game design. At the end of the course, family and friends will be invited to join a virtual showcase where students will present their final projects.
Harvard University And Critical Thinking Skills
Critical Thinking & Problem Solving From The Youngest Through The Up and Coming
Today's kindergarteners may be entering the workforce around the year 2034. We have no idea what the world will look like in five years, let alone twenty! What we do know is that education in the 21st century will need to address a rapidly changing world filled with problems and possibilities that could not have been imagined several decades ago.
To function and create change in this modern world, individuals need critical thinking skills – the ability to think about ideas or situations to fully understand their implications to be able to make an informed judgment or decision.
Critical thinking includes skills such as questioning, predicting, investigating, hypothesizing, analyzing, reflecting, revising, comparing, evaluating, and forming opinions. It involves an inquiry process of exploring issues that may not be clearly defined and for which there are no clear-cut answers. Critical thinking also includes metacognition – the process of thinking that enables us to reflect on our learning as we develop knowledge and skills.
In the age of artificial intelligence, we need to expand human intelligence and encourage knowledge discovery from an early age. Our critical thinking curriculum for kids brings holistic knowledge to young minds and enriches the thinking of older ones.
Taught by graduates of top universities and professionals in the field this course, inspired by those courses taught at Harvard University, enables students to draw on their existing knowledge and experience, as well as on their problem-solving skills to address challenging issues. At the end of the course, family and friends will be invited to join a virtual showcase where students will present their final projects.
