AI is the future of STEM. It’s never been more important to be knowledgeable on what makes AI accessible, from coding to innovation to technology.

AI Academy explores how the more we know about how powerful AI can be, the more we can solve problems in everyday life. Celebrating the National Science Week school theme: Innovation: Powering Future Industries, students will learn all about becoming familiar with AI innovation in industry and science, as well as (sometimes unintended) consequences, will make students better prepared for the advances in technology, and the ways in which STEM is leading our future study and career pathways.

And how are we going to do that? With comedy of course!

The show consists of comedic and interactive science sketches, introducing crazy characters and relatable situations, delivered by our professional actor educators.

Student audience and volunteers become part of the action, and are encouraged to offer suggestions that the actor will incorporate. The result is that students get to have input in the show, while watching and learning.

Shows are available in Sydney and Melbourne, as well as online.
