The camp offers a unique blend of game development and cybersecurity, allowing students to train AI models to defend against virtual threats.
DecTech's "The Cyber-Sentinels" camp is designed for middle schoolers (grades 6-7) to delve into the exciting world of machine learning and network defense. Campers will learn to design tower defense games where enemies adapt using machine learning, providing a hands-on approach to understanding AI. The curriculum also focuses on cybersecurity, introducing concepts like authentication (passwords vs. biometrics) and securing game data. A key project involves developing a "Firewall Defender" game where students train an AI model to distinguish between "Safe Data" and "Malware" sprites. This immersive experience helps students build games resilient against cheats and exploits, fostering critical thinking and problem-solving skills in a fun, interactive environment.
A typical day involves hands-on activities focused on game development with AI and cybersecurity concepts, culminating in projects like designing a tower defense game or a "Firewall Defender" game.
This camp is best for middle schoolers (grades 6-7) interested in understanding how AI and machine learning can be applied to game development and cybersecurity.
