The College Magazine Summer 2021

Learn Worldwise
Introduction of AI is a two-fold project. On the one hand,
we want to expose our students to AI and develop their
understanding of the complex concepts from a young age.
This will be done through hands-on experience of AI in
Early Years and Junior School, and work with AI in Senior
School. On the other hand, we are designing curriculum
materials to integrate AI projects across the College. In
addition to teaching AI, we are investigating AI-powered
EdTech tools and platforms that can enhance the teaching
and learning at the College.
a leading international school, we want to ensure that
we are practising innovation as well as embedding it in
our curriculum. In recent months, we have been forming
relationships to collaborate on new and exciting innovative
ideas. One of our focuses was the enrichment of our
curriculum with Artificial Intelligence. Recently you may
have read about Velocity, our newly founded DeepRacer
club. This student-led club is one of 13 founding members
of China’s DeepRacer league, where students train
Reinforcement Learning models and deploy them on
real autonomous cars to compete against other schools.
Despite being newly founded, the club had remarkable
success in their first race, having two teams finished first
and third in the league.
We are excited to be working with our students, parents,
and teachers to support a meaningful integration of
technology as well as further developing the innovation
culture at DCB. Students are at the heart of our mission
statement, and we invite parents and other partners to join
us and enrich the student DCB experience to ensure that
students learn worldwise.
