What will you learn?
This course introduces Artificial Intelligence through simple explanations, everyday examples, and practical activities. You will explore how AI works, where it is used, and how to use AI tools effectively and responsibly. No programming is required.
Core Topics
🧠 Introduction to Artificial Intelligence
What AI means, its brief history, everyday uses, capabilities, limitations, and the importance of human judgement.
📊 Data and Its Role in AI
Types of data, examples and labels, data quality, and how inaccurate information affects AI results.
⚙️ How AI Systems Work
Inputs, processing, and outputs; following rules versus learning from examples; and how AI produces predictions and recommendations.
📚 Introduction to Machine Learning
Learning from labelled examples, grouping similar items, and learning through actions and rewards, explained using familiar situations.
🔗 Introduction to Deep Learning
The basic idea of neural networks, learning patterns through layers, common applications, and limitations, explained visually.
💬 AI for Language and Speech
Translation, text summarisation, speech-to-text, text-to-speech, chatbots, and common errors in language outputs.
🤖 AI for Images and Physical Tasks
Recognising objects, reading text from images, simple robotic applications, and common recognition errors.
🌍 AI Applications Across Disciplines
AI in education, business, tourism, arts, and public services; explaining its benefits and limitations through presentations and respectful discussions.
✍️ Using AI Tools and Writing Prompts
Choosing suitable tools, writing clear instructions, specifying context and output format, and improving responses through follow-up prompts.
✅ Basic Performance Evaluation of AI
Checking results, understanding accuracy through simple counts and percentages, verifying information, and reporting errors honestly while protecting privacy and acknowledging AI assistance.
By the end of the course, students should be able to apply basic AI concepts to select suitable tools for everyday tasks, communicate clearly about AI applications, and show responsible AI use through information checking, privacy protection, and acknowledgement of AI assistance.
