Episode 1 · Learner activity
What would you check?
Use an AI tool you know, or the fictional invitation example from the lesson. Work on paper or type below. Nothing is sent or saved when you leave this page.
1. Describe the job
2. Compare the evidence
Our invented invitation says 1 PM. The matching invented schedule says 2 PM.
Before correcting the invitation, what would you compare to confirm it is the same event? What time should it contain? What would another confident chatbot response still leave you needing to check?
3. Define the stopping point
Suppose a system can read the schedule and draft an invitation.
4. Recall without replaying
- Does every AI system learn from data?
- Does a confident answer establish correctness?
- What extra questions matter when a system can use tools?
Compare your answers after trying
Check the event name and date before using the schedule. For the matching event, change the invitation to 2 PM. Another chatbot response does not replace examining the source.
A permitted task can be to prepare and check a draft, then stop for human review. Sending is a separate action; review the message and recipient first.
Some AI systems use rules or knowledge, some learn patterns, and some combine approaches. Confidence does not establish accuracy. Tool use adds questions about allowed actions, stopping points and checks.
Explain the idea in your own words; matching the exact wording is not the goal.
Facilitator option: 30 minutes
| Minutes | Activity |
|---|---|
| 0-1 | Invite a question. |
| 1-13:11 | Watch, including thinking pauses. |
| 13:11-22 | Complete the activity. |
| 22-28 | Discuss choices and evidence. |
| 28-30 | Recall, then choose a result to check next time. |
Allow more time for a pause when the group needs it. This is practice with the lesson, not a measured learning-gain study.
