A live in-school course for grades 8–12 · Mumbai

Think clearly,
so you can use AI well.

A live, 60-minute session in your classroom. Students learn to decode any answer a chatbot gives and direct it like a tool. AI was trained on us, so it makes our brains' mistakes, and one set of thinking skills fixes both.

Step 1 of 3: a random anchor.

Quick gut check.

Is the share of UN member states that are African more or less than 10%?

(That number was handed to you at random. Hold that thought.)

Designed for grades 8–12

A story-driven hour built for top CBSE and international schools in Mumbai, rigorous enough for the brightest students and fun enough that they forget they're learning.

The idea

Decoding AI is a thinking skill. We teach the skill.

Everyone tells students to “use AI responsibly.” Almost nobody teaches them how. The how turns out to be old and well-understood: the bias, statistics, and computer science that explain why a confident answer can still be wrong.

A large language model makes the same mistakes a human brain makes, because it was trained on us. One mental toolkit decodes both, and every idea in the course leads to the same payoff: think clearly, so you can use AI well.

How we teach it

The Mirror Move

The spine of every session: we trigger a bias live in the room, then catch an AI doing the same thing on the projector. Students get fooled, then watch the AI get fooled ten seconds later.

  1. 01ON US

    On us

    Run a live experiment on the room with the clicker.

  2. 02IN THE MACHINE

    In the machine

    Show the same effect happening inside an LLM.

  3. 03LIVE AI

    Live AI

    Demonstrate it on a real chatbot, then and there.

  4. 04THE SKILL

    The skill

    State the concrete takeaway for using AI well.

The clicker

Fifty phones. One room. Commit, then reveal.

Every student votes on a phone; nobody sees the result until the presenter hits Reveal. The gap between how confident the room was and how wrong it was is the same gap that makes people over-trust a chatbot.

Used badly, AI is a confident liar. Used well, it's a superpower. The difference is whether the human knows how to think.

Every session closes on the optimistic half.

Computational Thinking and AI in Law — a single-credit, 16-hour course.

Eight sessions with live demonstrations, two Conversations with Experts and an evaluation, purpose-built for law students. It is the same idea at university level.
