Table 2 The structure of the AI-integrated science lesson
From: Integrating artificial intelligence into science lessons: teachers’ experiences and views
The flow of the lesson (segments) | Descriptions |
|---|---|
(1) Pre-lesson video primers | – Introduce the concept of AI – Provide an overview of the machine learning (ML) cycle |
(2) Recapitulation of key science ideas | – Recap key science ideas taught in Grade 7 science, including diversity, models, and scientific methods |
(3) Linking the key science ideas to key AI ideas | – Do a trigger activity using “Quick, Draw!”, which showcases the predictive abilities of ML – Engage in an activity to understand how machines and humans learn |
(4) Developing an AI predictive model using Orange program | – Pose the scientific problem of developing a model that enables determination of conditions for deploying solar panels on Mars to harness solar energy – Build a predictive model involving big data based on ML algorithm using the Orange software program |
