AUGMENTED INTELLIGENCE ACADEMY
BUILDING BETTER FUTURES
INSTRUCTING YOUTH IN THE SOUTH FLORIDA AREA IN STEM SINCE 2014

Our Mission Statement:

Augmented Intelligence Academy strives to create an environment where not only learning, education, and innovation is centered but also where students leave feeling ready to take on the growing fields in technology that young adults find themselves in. We also are dedicated to empowering our local communities to allow those who often do not have access to technology and resources to grow in their passions for learning. We strive to have students become critical thinking and approach problems in creative manners through project based learning and peer to peer learning to not only adapt to the future but innovate it as well.

Offered Programs:

​We currently offer courses at schools in Miami-Dade County and are working on expanding to Broward County. If you want one of these programs brought to your school, contact director@aiacademy.net.
​​Lego Mindstorms EV3™ Robotics (ages 10-14)
Picture
This program uses Mindstorms, a robotics kit designed to increase interest in robotics and teach students the basics of sensors, structure design, and programming. Classes begin with an introduction to brick programming and basic structure and the class advances to block programming on the Mindstorms software. It then facilitates the creation of more advanced bots using sensors to interact with their environments and each other. Students may continue further to programing the bots with micro python for EV3 and expansion sets which allow for more complex designs. This course places an emphasis on teamwork and covers lessons on inputs and outputs, design planning, structural integrity, torque, center of mass, data types, if/then statements, and problem-solving/troubleshooting.
Raspberry Pi and Python (ages 11-18)
Picture
In this class we cover coding with python, a programing language common in professional environments and good for beginner programmers due to its similarities to English, using Raspberry Pi, a versatile single-board computer that is good for small-scale projects and the instruction of computing. As the course advances and students become more proficient in Python, students begin learning physical computing, using sensors, LEDs, buttons, and more. Students in this course will learn basic programming, problem-solving, physical computing, and Linux operations.
​Micropython for ​EV3™ (ages 11-18)
Picture
This course combines the Python and Mindstorms courses by programing the Mindstorms robots using Micropython. It covers the building and structure aspects of the robotics course while providing an addition to the depth of knowledge by having the students advance from block programing to coding with Micropython. This allows students to further extend and apply their knowledge to future skills such as coding. Using Micropython allows for an introduction to coding more suitable for younger students than the Raspberry Pi course because it uses reduced python commands and the robots allow for visualization of the program with tangible results faster. This provides introductory knowledge of Python that students can further expand on.
​Adobe Photoshop (ages 13-18)
This course covers basic concepts in digital design and their applications in Adobe Photoshop. Students learn how to navigate the design program, learn how to streamline, their workflow, and have the opportunity to get certified by the end of the course. Learning is done through guided activities and student-chosen design projects that allow the students to begin building a portfolio.
​Lego Education™ Simple Machines (ages 7-10)
Lego Simple Machines allow students to learn building basics and structural design by giving students an understanding of what simple machines are and how they can be used with each other, by themselves, or integrated into a larger project. With machines such as a pulley, wheel and axel, and gear setup, this course will allow students to gain an interest in design and building. This will allow children to have the opportunity for early advancement in science and technology.
​​Play Osmo (ages 3-5)
Play Osmo uses physical buttons and shapes to encourage learning through interaction facilitating spelling, shape recognition, spatial awareness, and coding. They are a fun and interactive way to advance your child's learning and development.
We currently offer courses at schools in Miami-Dade County and are working on expanding to Broward County. If you want one of these programs brought to your school, contact director@aiacademy.net.
