Aim:
To explore real-life situations and decide whether AI, humans, or both make better decisions.
Materials Required:
-
Scenario cards or printed worksheet (teacher can write on chart paper or slides)
-
Pen or pencil
-
Group discussion setup (4–5 students per group)
Step-by-Step Activity Plan
Step 1: Introduction (5 minutes)
Teacher asks:
“Do you think a computer can ever make decisions like you? Why or why not?”
Encourage quick student responses.
Step 2: Scenario Challenge (10 minutes)
Each group receives 4–5 scenario cards like:
|
Scenario |
Who Decides Better? (Human / AI / Both) |
Why? |
|
Driving safely in fog |
AI |
AI sensors can detect obstacles even in low visibility. |
|
Comforting a sad friend |
Human |
Requires empathy and understanding of feelings. |
|
Detecting a pattern in big data |
AI |
Can process huge data quickly and accurately. |
|
Choosing the best design for a poster |
Human |
Involves creativity and artistic judgment. |
|
Managing traffic lights in a city |
Both |
AI for timing, humans for emergency overrides. |
Groups discuss and fill their answers.
Step 3: Group Sharing (10 minutes)
Each group presents one scenario and explains:
-
Why they chose human/AI/both.
-
What type of “intelligence” was required — logic, emotion, or creativity.
Step 4: Reflection (5 minutes)
Teacher asks:
-
Can AI replace human thinking entirely?
-
What would happen if only AI made all decisions in society?
Students reflect and share their opinions.
