Five Sites for Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning

What is Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning?


AI (Artificial Intelligence) is the ability for computers to perform tasks that are usually performed by humans such as visual perception, speech recognition, decision-making and translations in languages.

Machine Learning is a type of AI where computer systems learn to make decisions based on collected data.

After listening to the Google Teacher Tribe Podcast on the topic of AI and Machine Learning,  I was inspired to write this post.

Here are some examples of AI and Machine Learning that you can use in your classrooms.

Quick Draw by Google - Draw the object and see if the computer system can recognize the object. 



Auto Draw - a game where the computer tries to guess what you're drawing and lets you replace your drawing with an artistic drawing.
I drew a turkey

Here is one of the recommended artistic images


Mystery Animal - The computer pretends to be an animal, and you have to guess what it is using your voice.  Ask 20 yes or no questions to see if you can guess the animal. 



Story Speaker  - Create talking, interactive stories with no coding required.  Just write your story in a Google Doc with the Story Speaker extension.  Create forks in the story similar to a choose your own adventure. Then play the story and ask the reader to answer, with voice, which choice they want. The story continues according to the reader's choice.  The stories can be written quickly using the templates. Try this one out.  Use the chat feature if you don't have Google Home.  Remember to get the extension.




Teachable Machine -  Teach a machine using your camera with no coding needed. Use gestures in your camera to have various actions take place such as playing a gif, making a sound, or speech commands. Machine Learning is difficult to understand until you show others this site and how it works.

 I hope you check out these sites to keep up-to-date with the latest advancements in technology such as AI and Machine Learning. Share these with your friends, colleagues and students. Enjoy!

Poetry Month is Right Around the Corner Are you getting ready for Poetry Month in April? If so, I have some resources to share with you for creating concrete poems. Concrete poems are words written in a shape to convey a poem. They look like this: Recently I went on a mission to search for a site to use with a fellow colleague and her students. They wanted to make concrete poetry on their Chromebooks. There aren't many sites that allow the user to actually write words into any shape.  There is the Read, Write, Think interactive for Theme Poetry.  Here is what it looks like. The words can be added inside of a shape. The interactive guides students through the writing process There is a site from WildAboutWoods.org  where a person can choose a shape or draw one of their own and add words inside of the shape. There are word banks to choose from or a person can type in their own words to add to the shape. I like that adding words is as simple as click ...

My Blog Makeover - How I Did It

I love change and and rarely do the same thing over and over.  So a blog makeover was  inevitable .  It takes quite a bit to make a blog look completely different, but I have found ways to make it easier on myself. Here are the resources I used to complete my blog makeover.   I found the background at the Dotty Dot Dot blog.  I chose Summer Sunset and simply had to copy the code and insert it.  I found directions on how to do this here .  I could have use the header (the title at the top of a blog) from this site as well, but I decided it was too plain, so I searched for a different header. Shabby Blogs provided me with a header that fit my background perfectly.  I found directions to change my header here . I wanted to add my blog title to the header, so I used a photo editing site called Fotoflexer .  This was the first time I had used this site and I loved it!  I have since used Fotoflexer for some other projec...
