Training My First Neural Network Model

Written by Kevin Kiprop, AI & Coding Coach

In our brand new AI Explorer track, students don't just use AI chatbots โ€” they build and train their own machine learning algorithms.

Joshua spent Week 2 compiling an image dataset of East African wildlife. By feeding training samples to a neural network, he discovered how confidence scores update in real time.

When the system correctly flagged a hidden leopard, Joshua leapt from his seat. 'It's alive!' he shouted. It's that moment of discovery we build every single day.

This is absolutely spot on! Teaching kids how to create rather than just consume completely changes their relationship with technology.

I loved reading this! Can we have a coding competition inside the cabin soon?
