A Grade 6 student's prompt, in five parts
RoleYou are a friendly science tutor for a Grade 6 class.
TaskExplain how rain is formed.
ContextMy class is in a village school in Madhya Pradesh. We know the monsoon well, but not the word "evaporation".
FormatUse 4 short steps, one sentence each, in simple words.
ExampleStart like this: "Step 1: The sun warms the water in our pond…"
A first try
Tell me about rain.
What the model has to guess
- Who is asking, and how much do they already know?
- Which part of "rain" matters: how it forms, how much falls, or why it's late?
- How long should the answer be, and in what shape?

What is an AI lab for schools?
An AI lab for schools is a program where students learn how artificial intelligence works by using it, training it and shaping it. At Anylan Foundation it can mean an offline lab where students from Grade 6 create their own chatbots by writing the instructions that shape them, a Robotics & AI Lab where Grades 3–9 train AI models that see and sort, a one-day AI workshop, or AI training for the teachers themselves. Every student program runs offline, so children's data stays in the school. These AI programs are part of Anylan Foundation's STEM labs for government schools.

Design your own chatbot, without the internet.
Each team of four shares a Raspberry Pi 5 that runs an AI language model itself, inside the classroom. Students find out how the model works, learn to ask it well, and design a chatbot for a need they care about.
Students don't train a model or write code. They design how an existing AI model behaves, the same way companies set up customer-service chatbots.
- How language models workA model predicts the next word. Students play it out with cards before they ever open a screen.
- How to write a good promptRole, task, context, format and example: the five parts that turn a vague question into a useful answer.
- How to check AISmall models make mistakes students can spot, so checking an answer against the textbook becomes a habit.
- How to design a chatbotTeams give a bot its own rules and purpose, such as a quiz master or a school helpdesk, and present it.

Questions
AI for schools: common questions
What is an AI lab for schools?
An AI lab for schools is a program where students learn how artificial intelligence works by using it, training it and shaping it. At Anylan Foundation it can mean an offline AI lab where students from Grade 6 create their own chatbots by writing the instructions that shape them, a Robotics & AI Lab where Grades 3–9 train AI models that see and sort, a one-day AI workshop, or AI training for teachers.
Can students learn AI without the internet?
Yes. In the Offline AI Lab, Google's open-weight Gemma 4 model runs on a Raspberry Pi 5 inside the classroom, one Pi for every four students, so no internet connection is needed. In the Robotics & AI Lab, Teachable Machine runs offline inside the Mcode and Groblox coding editors.
Is an AI chatbot lab safe for Grade 6 students?
The lab runs offline. Students' chats stay on the Raspberry Pi in the classroom, so no outside company collects children's data. The teacher sets the rules every chatbot follows and can see every chat. Students are also taught to question and check every AI answer.
Which grades are the AI programs for?
The Offline AI Lab and AI workshops are for Grade 6 onwards. The Robotics & AI Lab runs from Grade 3 to Grade 9. AI Savvy Educator is for teachers of any grade.
What is the AI Savvy Educator program?
AI Savvy Educator is a one-day workshop, in Hindi and English, run in person for batches of 30 teachers or online. It trains teachers to use AI chat tools well for lesson planning, worksheets and questions, to check AI answers, and to keep student data private. It includes Google's free course Generative AI for Educators with Gemini, so teachers finish with a certificate of completion from Google.
Can CSR funds be used for AI programs in government schools?
Yes. Promoting education is listed under Schedule VII (ii) of the Companies Act, 2013. Anylan Foundation is registered with the Ministry of Corporate Affairs to implement CSR projects (CSR-1: CSR00096762).
