Ever wanted to fly?! Learn to play the piano while basket weaving under lava?! Sing like Sam Tsui?! Well... we can't really help with that...BUT, we can offer you a SAH-WEET and ENTERTAINING and HILARIOUS and basically the TIME OF YOUR LIFE while making FANTASTIC baked goodies from all over! :D The class will be "taught" by three super entertaining, energetic, and ridiculously good-looking (ok, so what if i'm quoting my mom! :P) undergrads. Even our names are crazy: Chacha, Yuki and the craziest one of them all: ROB. So, whatta ya say? C'mon, do it, always do it!

This isn't your average programming class. We are not going to teach you how to sort lists or code the Fibonacci sequence. Instead, we will be showing you how to make programs that are ACTUALLY useful. By working with libraries on the internet, we will teach you how to integrate others' code into your own code. We will also teach you basic programming concepts so that by the time you finish this class, you will be able to take most libraries on the internet and make them your own! Welcome to the world of programming!

Ever wonder how the Iron Chefs like Mario Batali devise such elegant "recipes" off the top of their heads? Or how some chefs can just put together a complete dinner with a very limited number ingredients? They all share a secret which all great chefs know: "don't use a recipe!" Cooking is an Art, not a Science. It requires a great deal of creativity, not precise measurement. It also requires an in-depth knowledge of the basic building blocks of the culinary arts. In this class, you will learn how to cook without a recipe by exercising your creative minds and learning about the foundations of cooking. By the end of the class, you will be able to put the two together and open a new door of culinary freedom. Check this out: http://mcqueen.mit.edu.ezproxy.canberra.edu.au/splash

Students will grasp a basic understanding of current AI techniques and will apply what they learn to train a computer to build the ultimate cookie recipe. Students will supervise the choice of training cookie recipe samples to develop their own delicious cookie recipe. Students will also learn about the science behind baking: baking soda vs. baking powder, protein development, oven heat transfer, and more. The instructors will bring in cookies to the class based on the current AI-developed cookie recipe to compile feedback for the AI learning program. No actual baking will happen in class.
