AI for Every Student
AI Futures: Build, Think, Lead
Build your own AI future.
AI Futures gives high school students 3 to 18 hours of hands-on AI project experience, connecting math, science, and career preparation to real-world work.
Courses
Vibe Coding a Website
3 Hours
In three hours you’ll create a website with AI. The workshop introduces prompting fundamentals and portfolio building, resulting in a functional website.
Bot Builder
3 Hours
Developed with Freemind, a student-run organization. Students build an AI-powered bot: a Homework Assistant ("Tutor Bot"), Essay Assistant ("Feedback Bot"), or Test Study Assistant ("Study Bot").
Weekend AI Intensive
18 Hours
A three-day arc — Learn + Experiment, Build + Apply, Refine + Present — from a hands-on first AI model through vibecoding, prompt engineering, and a final pitch to mentors.
Custom Course
Flexible
You bring the students, we bring the materials and educators. NOAI develops a course aligned to your students’ interests — we just need a classroom venue, a target group of students, and a time and schedule.
