The program uniquely combines hands-on robot construction with an emphasis on ethical AI integration and the development of critical thinking skills for an AI-driven world.
Students in The Pennington School's AI & Machine Learning summer program engage with mathematics and science through hands-on activities. The program focuses on building animated, self-built robots, allowing participants to directly apply AI/ML concepts. This immersive experience aims to develop critical thinking and problem-solving skills by challenging students to design and program their own robotic creations. The curriculum emphasizes understanding the nature and limits of AI-generated content, including accuracy, bias, and attribution. Students will practice distinctly human skills such as writing, reasoning, collaboration, and creative production, while also developing personal frameworks for deciding when AI use serves their learning. The program prepares students to understand, question, and ethically wield AI tools, fostering AI literacy as a form of critical thinking.
A typical day includes morning and afternoon instructional sessions, team-building activities, lunch, and recreational pool or water activities.
This program is best for middle and high school students who are eager to explore the intersection of mathematics, science, and technology by building robots and delving into AI/ML concepts.
