| 11 | +# Generative AI for Beginners - A curriculum |
7 | 12 |
|

| -- Improving this README.MD file to provide a great experience |

11 |
| -- Remove this section from the README |
| 13 | +Azure Cloud Advocates at Microsoft are pleased to offer a 12-week, 24-lesson curriculum all about Generative AI basics. Each lesson includes pre- and post-lesson quizzes, written instructions to complete the lesson, a solution, an assignment and more. Our project-based pedagogy allows you to learn while building, a proven way for new skills to 'stick'. |

| -## Contributing |
| 15 | +> **Teachers**, we have [included some suggestions](for-teachers.md) on how to use this curriculum. If you would like to create your own lessons, we have also included a [lesson template](lesson-template/README.md). |
14 | 16 |
|
15 |
| -This project welcomes contributions and suggestions. Most contributions require you to agree to a |
16 |
| -Contributor License Agreement (CLA) declaring that you have the right to, and actually do, grant us |
17 |
| -the rights to use your contribution. For details, visit https://cla.opensource.microsoft.com. |
| 17 | +> **[Students](https://learn.microsoft.com/training/student-hub/?WT.mc_id=academic-99474-cxa)**, to use this curriculum on your own, fork the entire repo and complete the exercises on your own, starting with a pre-lecture quiz, then reading the lecture and completing the rest of the activities. Try to create the projects by comprehending the lessons rather than copying the solution code; however that code is available in the /solutions folders in each project-oriented lesson. Another idea would be to form a study group with friends and go through the content together. |

| -When you submit a pull request, a CLA bot will automatically determine whether you need to provide |
20 |
| -a CLA and decorate the PR appropriately (e.g., status check, comment). Simply follow the instructions |
21 |
| -provided by the bot. You will only need to do this once across all repos using our CLA. |

|
23 |
| -This project has adopted the [Microsoft Open Source Code of Conduct](https://opensource.microsoft.com/codeofconduct/). |
24 |
| -For more information see the [Code of Conduct FAQ](https://opensource.microsoft.com/codeofconduct/faq/) or |
25 |
| -contact [opencode@microsoft.com](mailto:opencode@microsoft.com) with any additional questions or comments. |
| 21 | +We have chosen two pedagogical tenets while building this curriculum: ensuring that it is project-based and that it includes frequent quizzes. By the end of this series, students will have built a number of real-world projects that leverage generative AI. |
26 | 22 |
|
27 |
| -## Trademarks |
| 23 | +By ensuring that the content aligns with projects, the process is made more engaging for students and retention of concepts will be augmented. |
28 | 24 |
|
29 |
| -This project may contain trademarks or logos for projects, products, or services. Authorized use of Microsoft |
30 |
| -trademarks or logos is subject to and must follow |
31 |
| -[Microsoft's Trademark & Brand Guidelines](https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/legal/intellectualproperty/trademarks/usage/general). |
32 |
| -Use of Microsoft trademarks or logos in modified versions of this project must not cause confusion or imply Microsoft sponsorship. |
33 |
| -Any use of third-party trademarks or logos are subject to those third-party's policies. |
| 25 | +In addition, a low-stakes quiz before a class sets the intention of the student towards learning a topic, while a second quiz after class ensures further retention. This curriculum was designed to be flexible and fun and can be taken in whole or in part. The projects start small and become increasingly complex by the end of the 12 week cycle. |

| 27 | +## Each lesson includes: |
| 28 | + |
| 29 | +- sketchnote |
| 30 | +- optional supplemental video |
| 31 | +- pre-lesson warmup quiz |
| 32 | +- written lesson |
| 33 | +- for project-based lessons, step-by-step guides on how to build the project |
| 34 | +- knowledge checks |
| 35 | +- a challenge |
| 36 | +- supplemental reading |
| 37 | +- assignment |
| 38 | +- post-lesson quiz |
| 39 | + |
| 40 | +> **A note about quizzes**: All quizzes are contained [in this app](), for 48 total quizzes of three questions each. They are linked from within the lessons but the quiz app can be run locally; follow the instruction in the `quiz-app` folder. They are gradually being localized. |
