AI Bias Worksheet for Kids

AI for students lesson 7: Bias: when data is unfair · Set 140 · 40 questions

AI tip (Fair data, fairer AI): Bias usually comes from the training data: if a group is missing or shown in only one way, the model copies that. One-sided data: one age group, only ripe mangoes, only adult voices, only neat handwriting. Balanced data: many ages, colours, voices, regions and styles. Reduce bias: add varied examples, check who is missing, test on many groups, fix wrong labels and listen to complaints.

1. 1.⚖️ One-sided or balanced data: photos of people from only one age group? (a) balanced data (b) one-sided data
