Eco-Minds: AI-Powered Learning for a Greener World

Description

This 5-day intensive course focuses on STEM and environmental studies, with an emphasis on integrating Artificial Intelligence (AI) into classrooms through real-world, sustainability-focused projects.
Participants will use tools like Teachable Machine to explore how machine learning can raise awareness and generate solutions for environmental challenges. Through hands-on activities, collaborative design, and reflective practice, teachers will experience how AI can support competency-based learning and inspire students to become changemakers in their communities.

Creativity and Innovation

- Promote critical thinking around sustainability, ecosystems, and human impact.

- Apply AI to real-world environmental issues such as waste classification or nature sound monitoring.

Pedagogical Design and Collaboration

- Co-create classroom-ready resources and learning sequences.

- Share and review ideas through peer feedback and collaborative planning.

The course uses a learning-by-doing and project-based approach, supported by:

- Hands-on exploration of AI through visual and audio model training.

- Collaborative project design in small teams.

- Case studies and real-life examples linking AI and sustainability.

- Reflection sessions focused on classroom application, inclusion, and ethics.

- Tools: Teachable Machine, basic multimedia capture (images, sounds), shared digital docs.

No prior coding or AI experience required.

By the end of the course, participants will:

- Understand the basics of AI and how it can be used to support environmental education.

- Design and train simple AI models using Teachable Machine (image/audio).

- Create at least two prototype projects: one for waste classification, and one for sound recognition in nature.

- Develop a ready-to-use, interdisciplinary lesson plan or project for their students.

- Gain confidence in guiding students through AI-based inquiry and sustainability challenges.

- Leave with a toolkit of digital resources, example projects, and a supportive teacher network.
