In this online live course, students will have hands-on experience training machine learning models to recognize sound, images, and text. They will apply the trained models using Scratch to create projects such as smart assistants, virtual pets, chatbots, emotion recognition systems, and intelligent maze games. Students will be exposed to two different approaches to intelligent problem solving and gain a solid understanding of the difference between rule-based models and data-based machine learning models. Our projects explain how and why we use machine learning, introduce big data, and demonstrate how these concepts can be applied together to create classification and regression models. We teach children computational programming skills and machine learning concepts through project based lessons. This course consists of 9 guided projects and one final project of the students' own design. Students will be asked to demonstrate their machine learning final project in the last class. 

Prerequisite: At least 15 hours Scratch coding experience is required
Recommended experience: Project-Based Scratch for Kids (Level 2)

Parental Guidance
Dear Parents Welcome to our Machine Learning With Scratch Coding for Kids. In this online live course, students will have hands-on experiences for training AI machine learning systems and building things with them, by creating projects and games with Scratch using text, image, or sound recognition. All lessons are project based and each lesson contains one fun project. All students will be asked to finish a final project with their own ideas which will be presented on the last day. There will be some quizzes for students to finish at home. To get started, please create an account at https://aicode101.com, which we will be using both in and out of class for this course. Important notes: As per Outschool Policy: For the safety of all students, all cameras must be on during the entire class duration, or at least for the first few minutes of the class session in certain circumstances. Please mute your audio (keep video enabled) during the class session. For those that have never used Outschool before, please see this article on how to prepare for your first class: https://support.outschool.com/en/articles/802757-how-to-prepare-for-your-first-class To join the class, please login to your Outschool account and click the scheduled session to get into the classroom, where you click “Join live meeting” to join the zoom classroom. There is no zoom link needed. If you have any questions/concerns please feel free to reach out through us on Outschool. We are beyond excited to have this opportunity to go on this amazing coding adventure with you all. Please come prepared and ready to learn for our first class, see you soon! Best regards, Delaware STEAM Academy
