You made it to the final lesson
You understand what AI is. You know how it learns. You can talk to it. You know how to stay safe. You've built one with Teachable Machine. You've thought about the future. Now it's time for ONE thing — your own mini project.
Complete this capstone and your certificate is yours.
Pick ONE capstone project
Option A — AI Art Gallery
Use ChatGPT, Gemini, or Microsoft Copilot (with parent permission). Create 5 AI images on a theme you love:
- "Kenyan animals wearing human clothes"
- "My dream house on the Kenyan coast"
- "What my school will look like in 2050"
- "A Kenyan superhero saving Nairobi"
- Or your own theme
Save the 5 images. Write a short paragraph under each explaining what you prompted and why. Total: ~200 words + 5 images.
Option B — Pet / Object Recogniser
Use Teachable Machine (Lesson 8). Build an AI that recognises three things you care about. Examples:
- Your 3 favourite toys
- 3 types of fruit
- 3 different family members
- 3 animals from your neighbourhood
Test it. Make sure it works. Save the model and export a shareable link. Write a short description of what your AI does and why you built it (around 100 words).
Option C — AI Story Collection
Use ChatGPT or Claude to write 3 short stories (each 150-200 words) set in Kenya. You write the prompts. AI drafts. You edit every story to add YOUR voice — change words, add details, make it yours. Save as a mini "book" in a Google Doc.
Option D — Kenyan-Kid Prompt Library
Build a list of 10 useful prompts that Kenyan kids like you could use — for homework, for fun, for creativity. Each prompt should be ready to copy and paste. Test each one yourself to make sure it works.
Option E — Invent Your Own
If none of those appeal, make up your own. The only rules: (1) it must use AI at some point, (2) it must be YOUR work, (3) you must be able to explain what you did and why.
How to submit your capstone
- Save your work (Google Doc, PDF, or image files).

Within 24 hours, we'll review it and issue your certificate. You'll receive it by email.

What you've really achieved
You are 8-14 years old. You now understand more about AI than most adults in Kenya. You've built a real AI system. You've thought about the future. You've practised safety.
When the next decade brings new AI tools — and it will bring MANY — you won't be afraid. You'll be curious. Because you know the basics.
That's the real prize. Not the certificate. The certificate is just paper. The understanding is forever.
Congratulations, AI builder. 🎉 Submit your capstone. Get your certificate. Go teach a friend what you learned.
Sit together. Pick your capstone option. Spend time building it. When done, celebrate! Take a photo of your project, send to us, and wait for your certificate. You earned it.
