AI Decision Trees

In this activity, students will explore how artificial intelligence systems classify information using decision trees, a foundational machine learning concept.

Through collaborative group work, students will create their own decision trees to classify a set of object cards using yes/no questions. They will then test another group’s tree, simulating how AI models are trained and evaluated. The activity encourages critical thinking about logic design, precision in language, and real-world AI applications such as spam filtering, medical diagnoses, and product recommendations.
