Building AI Fluency
Data Portraits
Who Do They Think You Are?
Encounter the four criminal charges against humanity before any teaching begins — create cognitive dissonance, not comfort
Building AI Fluency
Hello World
The Last Human Job
Judge which jobs survive automation
Building AI Fluency
Questioncraft
Watch the AI Break
Students rewrite a soft, closed interview question into a sharp, open, undodgeable one against a commit-clock, then the room votes the sharpest line of each round, proving that a closed question hands the subject an exit while a sharp one pins them to a real answer.
Building AI Fluency
Writers Room
Bridge of Fake News
Students snap-judge ten real AI press headlines as REAL or HYPE under a deadline clock, then confront a scored credulity meter that exposes their own bias — buying staged demos as real while dismissing the quiet peer-reviewed breakthroughs as hype.
Building AI Fluency
Six Lenses
The Trolley
In 5 minutes, get the room to agree to the rules of hard ethical thinking before the dilemma hits — so the debate that follows is honest, not point-scoring.
Building AI Fluency
Steelman
The Docket
Students seat themselves as the bench on the real Garcia v. Character Technologies wrongful-death docket, read the unsoftened facts of record, and commit a locked liability verdict on a single legal doctrine before the real court disposition is revealed against their stance.
Building AI Fluency
Teachers Conference
Memory Heist
Students memorise a wall of converging words under a clock; the vault seals; they snap-judge a lineup IN/OUT — and catch their own memory stamping a word it never saw as "seen", exposing reconstructive memory (the DRM effect) before any teaching.
Building AI Fluency
The Revision Sprint
Brain Teaser
Students retrieve the week's core AI concepts from memory under a tight clock, then read a per-topic heat-map that exposes which topics they only recognised rather than actually recall.

The Concept — Brief, Examples & Idea Lock
Film Ideation
Wake the story instinct: every story is someone who wants something, with something in the way.
Creating a Trailer
The Trailer Logline
The Trailer Logline
Students draw three random genre cards into Snyder's protagonist/goal/stakes slots and assemble a one-sentence logline under a 30-second timer, then the class swipe-votes it watchable or skip — producing a messy pitch first so the three-slot logline spine can be formalised after (Kapur productive failure).
Creating a Trailer
Trailer Beats — Grammar of the Cut
Trailer Beats
Students reorder seven shards of the original Matrix (1999) teaser into the order a trailer house cut them, then score their cut against the real one to discover that a teaser is an engineered escalation of beats, not a highlight reel.

Who Does AI Work — & What Does It Cost?
Pick Your Tools
Guess real API costs from usage descriptions
Creating a Trailer
The Style Frame
Moodboard & Style Frame
Students read six real film stills on instinct, match each to the mood it carries, and argue one contested frame — discovering that mood is built from nameable composition (thirds, leading lines, symmetry, light) rather than magic.
Creating a Trailer
Consistent World & Character
Consistent Characters
Train the eye to catch a single continuity break across a six-panel sweep, then reveal the four axes caught — palette, costume, world-prop, character-face — as the exact fields the next stage makes students author to keep a world and a lead consistent.

Hero Shots & Cinematography
Grasp why a story rides on a few frames, and how to choose them.

Edit — Cut to the Beat
The Edit
Students slam a marker on a sweeping playhead each time they feel a shot should cut on the beat, then score their frame-accuracy against the editor's real cuts — feeling, before any theory, that a cut is a timed decision against the music.
Creating a Trailer
The Voice — Narration & VO
The Voice
Hear what a voice does to a cut — and face the rights fight over cloning it.
Creating a Trailer
The Score — Music & Sound Design
Score & Sound
Feel how score and sound carry emotion the image alone cannot.
Creating a Trailer
Finish & Screen
The Film Festival
Under a sub-second lock clock, students read the engineered mood of animated title cards from typography and motion alone — kerning, slide direction and pacing — scoring on speed and accuracy before discovering the feeling was authored, not read.
Coding JARVIS
The Hacker Toolkit — Set Up the Dev Loop
The Design Sprint
Students predict pass-or-crash for AI-written Python, run it at a faux terminal, read the real traceback, patch the one broken line and re-run it green — feeling the predict→run→read→patch→re-run developer loop before it is taught.

Vibe-Coding a First Feature
Vibecode Hackathon
Grasp what "vibe coding" really means — and where it bites back.
Coding JARVIS
Persona Design
Persona Design
Students match three anonymised AI outputs to one fixed prompt back to the three system-prompt personas that produced them, discovering that a model's voice, hedging and refusal behaviour are set by its system message — same engine, different mask.

Building a Knowledge Base
See why ungrounded models invent facts — and what grounding actually buys you.

Agent Tool Use — Give It Hands
Agent Tool Use
Understand why a model alone cannot act, and how tools give it hands.
Coding JARVIS
Multi-step Agent Loops
Multi-step Agent Loops
Students parse an authentic ReAct agent transcript line by line — tagging each line Thought, Action, Observation, or Final Answer — so they can see, before any instruction, that an agent answers by looping (reason, act, observe, retry) rather than producing one clever response.
Coding JARVIS
Agent Ethics — When Should JARVIS Refuse?
Agent Ethics
Make a moral call under the clock before you reason about who is liable.
Coding JARVIS
Adversarial Testing — Break Your Agent
Adversarial Testing
Classify real, attributed jailbreak prompts into the OWASP LLM Top-10 2025 attack buckets against a per-attack countdown, scoring speed times accuracy on a live leaderboard, so students activate the schema they already hold before being taught how the attacks work.
Coding JARVIS
Deploy the Chat Widget
Deployment
Order a real Hugging Face Spaces deploy pipeline under a launch clock, surfacing the universal misorder (pushing before the secret is set) and the mines that look like steps, so the room feels why a build ships or fails before the deploy workflow is taught.
Coding JARVIS
Demo at Seoul Expo
Final Presentations
Students judge three live agent demos as falsifiable claims — ranking, scoring each on a visible-proof grid, and betting which founder got funded — then confront that polish without proof loses, before any teaching.
