The Code Behind Korra Jr.
Every answer Korra Jr. gives starts as real Python code that students write on the same tool professional engineers use to build real AI systems.
Inside AI Agents
Build Your Own
AI Agent
Students build their own AI agent in Python — a system that can understand questions, respond, remember context, and use tools.

Real Outcomes
What Your Child
Will Build
Students will design and build their own working AI agent, including:
Q&A Understanding
A system that can understand and respond to questions
Conversational Interface
A conversational interface for natural interaction
Persistent Memory
Memory to retain context across interactions
Tool Use
Tool usage to perform tasks and retrieve information
By the end of the camp, students will have built a functional AI system they understand and control.
Camp Preview
Watch the Camp in Action
Students build their own AI agent from scratch in Python, using the same kind of tools professional engineers use to build real AI systems today.
Inside Our
Curriculum
Real curriculum samples used to teach programming, robotics, and AI, developed and produced in-house by our team.
Inside the Curriculum
Meet Korra
The AI learning assistant that guides students as they build real technology with Python, robotics, and AI.

These are the twelve roles involved in building real software, and the twelve roles students will learn to take on.
Curriculum
What Students
Learn
Students are introduced to the core ideas behind modern AI systems:
Python Programming
Python programming to build a working AI agent
Components
How different components work together
Language
How AI models process language
Responses
How systems generate responses
Real Engineering
Built with Real Technology –
Not Simulations
Students do not use simplified tools or pre-built apps. They work with real technologies used in modern AI systems, including:
Logic
How Korra Jr. Thinks
Students see the graph that shows how a question is routed through models, memory, and tools. This is the real architecture behind modern AI agents.
Interface
The Korra Jr. Interface
Students ask Korra Jr. a question and get a real AI response — running on the agent they built. The agent searches the web, works with their files, summarizes notes, and explains its own code. Their agent, their questions, their answers.
This is not a chatbot demo — it is a real system built step by step.
The Big Picture
Why This
Matters
Most students already know how to use AI. They type a prompt and get a response. What very few learn is how to build the system on the other side of that prompt.
Korra Jr. is that system. Students build their own AI agent from scratch in Python. They wire it up to search the web, read files, summarize notes, and explain its own code. The agent answers their questions, with the tools they gave it, running on the laptop in front of them.
Students will leave camp as builders of real AI systems,
not just people who prompt them.

Enrolling in more than
one mini camp
Discounts do not stack. Only one discount applies per enrollment, whichever is greater. The Robotics and AI: PiCar Camp runs during the same six-week window as the mini camps, so it cannot be combined with them.
