Imagine Cup Junior is back, and better than ever. With new and improved lesson plans, new topics to explore and new hands on with Artificial Intelligence activities, now is the time to get involved in the world’s largest student AI challenge!
Learn About AI
In teams of 1 to 6, your students will learn about how artificial intelligence works with a fresh new curriculum, engage with Microsoft’s ethical principles and our AI for Good initiatives.
Dream up world changing ideas
Once your students have learned about this technology, they will dream up a world changing idea to solve a social, cultural, health or environmental challenge.
Compete against students around the globe
Your students will then need to submit their AI concept by May 12 2022 in the form of a ten-slide PowerPoint presentation which is included in your teacher resource kit.

Free teacher resources, future-focused learning and great prizes.
With free teacher resources, future-focused learning, and great prizes to win, there are plenty of reasons to get involved in Imagine Cup Junior. The global challenge has been designed to give your students the opportunity to take their ideas to the world, network with peers across the globe, and have the chance to bring their ideas to life.
Hackathon
Your students can complete the challenge in only four hours through a Hackathon run by the Australian education organization Education Changemakers. These are run in Term 1 2022 in both in-person and digital formats. You can also run a DIY hackathon with your students by combining the six lessons into one day.
Teachers kit
Alternatively your students can go deeper into their learning through the ICJ lesson plans. This consists of 6 x 45 minute curriculum aligned lesson plans that you can deliver at your school. These are easy to follow with everything you need to run engaging lessons for students.
