Tech Tinkerers
Hands-on exploration of technology and AI concepts through building, experimenting, and creative problem-solving with a focus on Singapore's unique challenges.
Curriculum Overview
An advanced, hands-on learning program where students design and build intelligent physical systems, blending electronics, coding, and real AI tools through robotics, sensors, and embedded intelligence.
What Your Child Will Learn:
- Connect sensors and actuators to microcontrollers for responsive systems
- Train and embed AI models into physical devices for gesture, voice, or image control
- Use AI to plan, document, and test real-world prototypes
- Design human-centred systems with accessibility and fairness in mind
- Prototype, troubleshoot, and iterate like an engineer
- Build and present AI-powered devices that solve everyday problems
Our AI Approach
Beyond embedded models, learners apply Everyday AI Skills to plan, document, and test hardware projects. We prioritise human‑supervised operation, privacy‑preserving (often on‑device) inference, energy‑aware design, and safety checklists. AI supports the engineering process while students own the decisions and safeguards.
8-Level Progressive Curriculum
Each level runs for one school term (12-16 weeks). Here's a preview of the first 3 levels:
Students learn to connect sensors to microcontrollers and create systems that react to environmental inputs with lights, sounds, and motors.
Key Topics (4):
Sample Project Outcome:
A light-sensitive alarm system that beeps and flashes when darkness is detected.
Students create more complex behaviors using programming concepts like loops, conditionals, and variables to control system responses.
Key Topics (4):
Sample Project Outcome:
A fan that activates only when it's hot and dark, then resets after a delay.
Students learn to train AI models and embed them into physical systems that can recognize gestures, sounds, or images and respond with physical actions.
Key Topics (4):
Sample Project Outcome:
A desk assistant that turns on a lamp when you wave and plays music when you smile.
