INSIDE A BUILDER MISSION

The answer sounded right. It missed the deadline.

In this sample project, a teen tests a club FAQ assistant against its source and fixes the instruction that let an important detail slip.

SOURCE · CLUB NOTICE

Meet Thursday at 4 p.m. in Room 12. Guests must register by Wednesday.

FIRST REPLY

What failed: The reply left out the registration rule.

THE CASE FOR AI LITERACY

Why AI literacy matters now.

In the studio, teens learn to verify what AI tells them, test what they build, and explain their decisions.

THE LEARNING PATH

Start where you are.

Students move ahead when they can show what they’ve learned. Each session has a next step for beginners and returning builders.

  1. 01

    Foundations

    Check an AI answer against a source. Train a simple model and see where it makes mistakes.

  2. 02

    Builder

    Build an assistant around a real question. Test what happens when the information is missing or contradictory.

  3. 03

    Studio

    Build for someone else. Watch them use it, revise the project, and explain what changed.
