Acting as a “graphic designer” for a new, 2D video game, learners create icons or characters through pixel art. By designing the same icon or character in two different sizes, learners ensure the “game” can be played on phones (simplified images for smaller screens) and/or desktop computers (larger images for bigger screens).

Learners enhance their understanding of encryption and decryption to protect personal information and develop critical thinking skills by using different encryption tools to create and send coded messages.

Learners develop computational thinking skills and global competencies as they collaboratively work together to design and build a structure that will protect the last Truffula seed (from the story ‘The Lorax’).

Using the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) as a provocation for learning, learners explore real-world robots that help protect the environment and are challenged to design a robot to clean-up trash from the schoolyard or a local  outdoor space. This activity can be done in-person or in a virtual setting.

Learners will use their knowledge of AI to ponder and form questions about the future of AI in the workplace and what role citizens could play in its development for daily use.

Learners will use their knowledge of AI and how facial filters work to explore the pros and cons of this rapidly advancing technology.

Learners develop computational thinking skills through creating a secret handshake.

Learners create simple commands to help guide a human "robot" to retrieve an item in the room.

Learners try to guess their partner’s number by asking the least number of ‘yes’ or ‘no’ questions.

Learners develop debugging and critical thinking skills by fixing a code to help get a rocket ship to the moon
