Summer Artificial Intelligence in Gaming Camp (Rising Grades 6,7,8,9) - June 18-22

Machine Learning and Artificial Intelligence in Game Design with Python

Day 1: Introduction to Game Design with SCRATCH

Scratch has been developed by the Lifelong Learning Group at the MIT Media Lab. It is a platform that promotes mathematical and computational skills as well as creativity, reasoning and collaborative working. Scratch can be used to make a number of multimedia applications such as games, animations, simulations, stories, and art.

During the first day of camp, students will learn by designing and coding their own game with SCRATCH. Participants will learn and practice the design thinking methodology to understand real-life problems and solve them by incorporating the knowledge they have learned.

Day 2: Coding with Python

Python is one of the most intuitive languages for beginning coders. It uses natural language avoiding some of the major difficulties that other languages have. Besides being a great beginning language, it is also a great asset given its wide spread adoption in areas like Data Science.

Students will learn and develop various programs in Python before learning how to manipulate the Python code using machine learning technique.

Day 3: Machine Learning in Python

Machine learning is the leading technique that enables computers to develop Artificial Intelligence. Unlike conventional programming where the computer follows a series of instructions, these algorithms enable the computer to learn patterns from data directly. This will be the computing paradigm of the future.

Day 4 & 5: Training Computers to Play Games

Students will train neural nets, a leading machine learning algorithm inspired by the human brain, to teach the computer to play games. Students will set parameters, monitor learning results and make improvements as they see fit. They will also reflect on what it means for computers to learn from data rather being programmed.

No previous knowledge of SCRATCH, Python Programming and Machine Learning necessary.
