I see there is a new Exploring Generative AI unit available. Any have ideas how it can be used in conjunction with (or instead of) CSD Unit 7 AI and Machine Learning? This is for students in grades 7-8.
Thoughts?
Hi @apatel,
Good question!! So - I put together a quick comparison. The content and type of AI focused on in each course is different. CSD’s Unit 7 AI and Machine Learning focuses on machine learning (analyzing data to make predictions) and students make a machine learning app. The new Exploring Generative AI course focuses on generative AI (uses AI to create new content) and students create chatBots in their final projects. There are also some slight grade level differences and the pacing and timeframe are a little different. Based on the grades you shared, you could consider Unit 7 CSD in 7th and then Generative AI for 8th. Unless…you have mixed classes. Then you’ll have to evaluate if the new Generative AI could work for your 7th graders.
Anyway - hope the comparison helps. FYI - here are all of Code.orgs AI resources.
