About the workbook
What this one does
A workbook that teaches a 10 to 14 year old what AI is actually doing behind the answer, so they keep doing the thinking themselves.
Seven sections that build on each other, and not one of them needs a screen to complete.
Inside
What’s in it
Me and My AI
Where you stand with AI right now — how much you use it, and how it makes you feel.
Inside the Machine
How chatbots actually work. Spoiler — they don't think the way you do.
The Hook
The tricks AI and apps use to keep you coming back. Once you see them, you can't unsee them.
Real or Fake?
Detective skills for spotting deepfakes, misinformation, and AI-generated content.
Tool, Not a Crutch
When AI helps you learn, and when it does your thinking for you. There's a big difference.
My AI Boundaries
Your own rules. What you'll share, what you'll keep private, where your limits are.
The Future Is Yours
AI isn't going anywhere, but neither are you. Plan how you'll stay in control.
