According to McKinsey Global Institute, AI is believed to be the next digital frontier. The supply and demand of AI is
foreseen to increase significantly in the upcoming years. As education practitioners, role and duty are to prepare students with the knowledge that can equip them better for their further studies and future career. Grasping the applications, understanding the mechanisms, and absorbing the principles of AI are the three building blocks in educating and preparing young learners for the upcoming digital frontier. In recent months, many schools have voiced their interests on seeking a user-friendly and easy-to-master AI package for teachers and students. Many teachers are aware of AI and believe that it is the future trend in developing the necessary scientific and technological knowledge and skills to live and work in the 21st century.
However, there are challenges to teach AI in schools, such as the payment settlement of AI cloud services by schools and the potential overcharging of AI cloud services due to misuse. To solve these practical problems, Magicube’s existed block-based coding online platform can easily help.
The new platform, called “Una-Pi”, allows students to use Una (embedding Microsoft MakeCode) to write program on Raspberry Pi by blocks. Una with our AI teaching packages ensure students to grasp the application, understanding the mechanism, and absorbing the principles of AI.
