Students gain practical experience by designing and coding their own AI chatbots, bringing their creative ideas to life with classroom-ready AI tools.
In the College for Kids AI/ChatBot Programming camp at Saddleback College, students aged 9-14 will delve into the exciting world of artificial intelligence by designing and coding their own interactive chatbots. The curriculum focuses on practical application, allowing participants to learn how computers "think" and how to craft engaging personalities for their digital creations. Students will gain hands-on experience with classroom-ready AI tools, practicing the art of writing effective prompts to guide their chatbots' responses. They will decide on the purpose of their AI companions, whether it's to be a trivia coach, a joke teller, or a quest guide, and then bring these ideas to life through coding. This program emphasizes computational thinking and problem-solving skills, providing a foundational understanding of AI concepts in a fun and creative environment.
A typical day involves students attending a 90-minute session focused on designing and coding AI chatbots, with opportunities for breaks and optional extended care activities.
This camp is ideal for middle and high school students (ages 9-14) who are curious about artificial intelligence and eager to learn practical coding skills to create interactive applications.
