AI - Unlocked

Imagination Grows When Tools Are Shared

AI, Unlocked — Join us for a community workshop

A series of community workshops designed to make AI accessible to everyone — whether you're exploring it for the first time, looking to deepen your technical skills, or a young learner ready to build something new. Each track is intentionally small so that every participant gets the attention and answers they deserve.

Three Tracks, One Goal

Choose the track that fits your experience level and interests.

Community Session

AI Fluency

Non-Tech ProfessionalsSingle 90-minute session

Theme: Getting Started with AI

Pre-requisite: Mobile phone with NotebookLM and your favourite AI chatbot (ChatGPT, Claude, or Gemini) installed

The Mental Model

(15 min)
  • AI as a reasoning partner, not just a chatbot

Knowledge Hub

(45 min)
  • Add documents, web links, and YouTube videos into NotebookLM
  • Summarize, generate FAQs, and build a personalized learning hub

Actionable Output

(30 min)
  • See how AI becomes your personal assistant and learning partner
  • Create something real — an email, a plan, or a script — using the CO-STAR prompting method

Kids Workshop

Anyone Can Create

Ages 12+One in-person session

Theme: AI Lab: From Idea to App

Pre-requisite: Parents are asked to provide a laptop and email access for their child

The Foundation: NotebookLM

(30 min)
  • The "Second Brain" — kids upload a source related to their project (e.g., a PDF about space, a YouTube transcript, or their own school notes)
  • Use AI to visualize the topic with a Mind Map
  • Generate a quick 5-question challenge to test understanding
  • Safety Check — a 5-minute "AI Truth Detector" talk on when to trust output and when to verify

The Build: One-Shot App Creation

(45 min)
  • Learn to write one "Mega-Prompt" that combines NotebookLM research with a functional request
  • Example: "Using the facts I learned about Mars, create an interactive Gravity Calculator where I can see how much I weigh on different planets. Make it look like a futuristic space console."
  • Practice iteration — give one "fix-it" instruction to refine the result

The Showcase

(15 min)
  • Open the finished Artifact in full-screen and present it to parents and fellow participants
  • Leave with a saved chat and URL to continue building at home
