The Curriculum

One logical path — from a first chart to real AI

Every Case is a step in one curriculum built on maths, computer science and AI. Each stage builds on the last — from “a chart is a picture of numbers” to computer vision, chatbots, knowledge graphs and AI agents.

Age bands:Under 88–1112–1516+All ages

1 · Foundations

A chart is a picture of numbers.

2 · Data & Arrays

Do maths to a whole row of numbers at once (NumPy).

Arrays & vectorised maths

A row of boxes you can add, compare and measure all at once.

Randomness & probability

Chance, fairness, and why more data tells a clearer story.

3 · Tables & Statistics

Ask questions of real datasets.

Tables (Pandas)

A spreadsheet you can group and summarise with code.

Average & spread

Mean, median and spread — why the average only tells half the story.

Correlation

When two things move together, that's a clue.

4 · Prediction & Machine Learning

Show the computer examples until it can guess on its own.

Prediction (regression)

Fit a trend and extend it to guess the future.

Classification

Learn from labelled examples, then test on unseen ones.

Clustering (unsupervised)

Find hidden groups with no answer key.

5 · Deep Learning

Inside the neuron that powers modern AI.

Neurons & gradient descent

Guess, measure the error, nudge — a million times over.

6 · Applied AI — the Frontier

🚀 AI Frontier · free, all ages

The AI everyone's talking about — see, read, write, connect, act.

Language (NLP)

Words become numbers a computer can sort, judge and filter.

LLMs (like ChatGPT)

Predict the next word — the one trick behind chatbots.

Knowledge graphs

Dots and links — how a computer finds hidden connections.

Agentic AI

AI that senses, decides and acts — with tools.

7 · AI Literacy & a Full Investigation

Use AI wisely — and put it all together.

Confidence, uncertainty & privacy

AI can be confidently wrong; good AI keeps your data private.

End-to-end investigation

Clean, chart, measure and report — a real case, start to finish.
