Large-scale experiment in STEM education for high school students using artificial intelligence kit based on computer vision and Python

This study proposes an artificial intelligence (AI) kit for high school students in science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM). The AI kit includes an edge AI machine and electronic components. A compact, purpose-built kit resembling a laptop was designed for ease of replication and portability. Utilizing pre-trained convolutional neural network models and computer vision algorithms, five Thai schools participated in on-site instructions. A quasi-experimental study assessed the students' learning outcomes using a paired sample
