Ninety minutes with a machine that gets it wrong.

An AI incursion for Perth schools, from Pre-primary to Year 12. Your class watches a machine get something confidently wrong, and spends the rest of the session working out why. Nobody needs a device.

One presenter, with your own teacher in the room throughout.

Picture cards of a cat, a dog and a rabbit, pinned to the board. TEACH IT said of the rabbit: I think this is a Cat, 95% sure. It was sure, and it was marked wrong. TEACH IT in our test run: taught four cats and four dogs, then shown a rabbit.

The 90-minute incursion

All prices are in AUD. We aren’t registered for GST, so no GST is added.

It’s presenter-led and projected, so students don’t need devices. We need a projector and some clear floor.

  • One class or year group, up to 60 students
  • Your own teacher stays in the room
  • No student devices and no student data

The ninety minutes, Pre-primary to Year 6:

  1. Minutes 0–8
    The cold open No introductions and no slides. We teach the machine one picture of a cat, and it calls the next card a cat, 100% sure.
  2. Minutes 8–30
    We teach it The class supplies the examples and watches it learn. Students call the next example and keep the score.
  3. Minutes 30–40
    We break it We show it the one thing nobody taught it. It gets it wrong, and it’s sure of itself. The class works out why before we say a word.
  4. Minutes 40–55
    On your feet An activity with no screens. Every student has a job, and the jobs swap halfway.
  5. Minutes 55–75
    So what The big question for their age, run as a whole-room argument. Students pick a side, then vote again to see who moved.
  6. Minutes 75–86
    The line Your teacher can lead this part. Each pair agrees one rule for the room in a single sentence.
  7. Minutes 86–90
    One sentence A student says the takeaway, and the room says it back.
From Year 7: the same shape, with the presenter typing and the room deciding
Years 7 to 9
Break the Bot. The class writes a help-bot’s rules and a student plays the bot. Everyone else tries to talk it past them. Then, what counts as evidence when a face can be faked.
Years 10 to 12
An AI tool used live on the presenter’s laptop, on a task the room votes for. Then a talk about assessment, including why detectors don’t reliably work.

Teach it cats and dogs. Then show it a rabbit.

This is the screen at minute 30, in your browser. Pick a card and teach it cat or dog. Then hold up the rabbit and mark what it says.

It was sure, and still wrong.

That’s a rabbit. Nobody taught it rabbits, so rabbit was never one of its answers.

How it decides

This is TEACH IT’s own rule, on the Series 1 picture cards. It finds the three examples of each animal most like the card on camera, and shares 100% between the animals it knows. It can only ever answer with something it was taught. How alike two cards look comes from TEACH IT’s picture model, measured on 2 October 2026. In our test run on the projector, taught four cats and four dogs, it called the rabbit a cat, 95% sure. Nothing you do here is recorded or sent anywhere.

A series for every year level, and one for staff

The storyline stays the same at every age. What changes is the activity and the question the room argues about. Each series has a free pack with a complete activity you can run without us.

Mapped to the WA curriculum

WA schools teach SCSA’s Western Australian Curriculum, which has its own codes. Each pack lists the WA content descriptions its series supports, quoted from SCSA, next to the Australian Curriculum v9 that WA’s is adapted from.

The rules we follow

Teachers are right to be careful with this. These rules hold at every year level.

No student devices. The tool runs on our laptop and your projector. Students hold cards, write and vote.
No student data. Nothing about a student goes into anything we use, not even a name.
No student images. In the primary session the camera points at the cards students hold up, never at faces, and nothing is saved.
Your teacher stays in the room. For the whole session, so there are always two adults present.
Your policies win. School and Department policy overrides anything taught in the room.

Staff PD: Monday Morning AI

The staff session comes in two halves. First your teachers bring real tasks and we build one live at the front. The tool gets the draft most of the way, and a teacher finishes it.

Then the harder conversation about assessment, including why AI detectors don’t reliably work, and where your school stands.

Monday Morning AI 90 minutes, up to 60 staff

Built live at the front, in the first half

  • A rubric built from a task description
  • Report comments, differentiated by achievement level
  • One passage rewritten at three reading levels
  • A quiz with its answer key

Then, the second half. Assessment, detectors and where your school stands.

Tell us the year level and a week that suits.

We reply within one business day.
