Description
This course is built directly upon the standard 6th-grade mathematics curriculum. We transform core math units—fractions, ratios, coordinates, and basic algebra—into practical tools for building Artificial Intelligence. Students will use fraction operations to evaluate AI models, apply ratios and proportions to normalize data, leverage coordinate geometry to create image recognition systems, and employ algebraic equations to design automated decision rules. Every AI concept is explicitly mapped to a specific math topic learned in class, demonstrating the real-world power of mathematical thinking.
