Unsupervised Learning

Machine learning where the model identifies patterns in data without labeled examples.

Help me explain to...

K–5th
Unsupervised learning is like exploring a puzzle with no picture, just figuring it out by trying.


6–8th
AI finds patterns all by itself, with no one telling it what the right answer is.


9–12th
Unsupervised learning uses unlabeled data to discover structure or groupings. It's used in clustering and dimensionality reduction.

Expeditions

K–5th
Give students unlabeled pictures and let them sort how they want. That’s unsupervised grouping!


6–8th
Give a dataset with no labels and ask students to cluster it logically. Then reveal the actual categories.


9–12th
Use k-means clustering on simple datasets. Visualize how AI sorts without instructions.
