AiTLE 每年均與不少中小學校長老師學生及伙伴到英國出席 BETT Show，當中不時會發現非常有用的工具，例如 2016 年往 BETT 時發現 micro:bit，之後引入香港，現時已成為 STEAM 教學不可或缺的設備。另外，2023 年在英國 BETT 發現學習 AI 的好工具：AlphAI，也將其引入香港，大受歡迎。

這兩個產品除了本身設計優勝之外，更重要的是持續有更新，2024 年 BETT 發現有 micro:bit CreateAI，唯當時未夠成熟。但剛剛完結的 2025 年 BETT，micro:bit CreateAI 已發展得很好，同時，AlphAI 軟件亦有更新，新版本新功能有著不少優點。

為令同工們對 micro:bit CreateAI 及 AlphAI 新版本有更多了解，AiTLE 特與 ETC 聯給舉辦 [ AiTLE x ETC : 「micro:bit CreateAI」暨「AlphAI 新版本（v. 1.9.0）新功能」工作坊 ]，詳情如下：

• 日期及時間（兩天內容一樣）：

• 地點：九龍深水埗英華街一號英華書院 C602 室
• 內容：
  • micro:bit CreateAI
  • AlphAI 新版本 1.9.0 新功能
• 凡出席工作坊的老師都會免費得到一條手帶。手帶乃由 micro:bit 官方專為 micro:bit createAI 而設計及生產的（按此查看）

以下乃兩個項目的簡介：

• miro:bit CreateAI
  • 於 2024 年 11 月推出的 micro:bit CreateAI 是一個免費的網頁工具，使學生能輕鬆通過運動和機器學習（ML）探索 AI。
    • 您可以使用 micro:bit CreateAI 訓練機器學習模型，然後在您的 BBC micro:bit V2 上運行它。
    • 以極易理解的圖形介面提供指導性逐步程序，以創建 AI 算法。
      • 從 micro:bit 的加速度計收集運動數據
      • 訓練機器學習模型以識別數據中的模式
    • 編寫程式碼讓 micro:bit 運行機器學習模型，並隨時隨地使用您的創作（例如，控制 fischertechnik 機器人模型和玩 Makey Makey 遊戲）
• 全新的 AlphAI 版本 1.9.0
  • 於 2025 年 2 月 7 日（星期五）發布，帶來了多項改進以及一項將徹底改變 AI 學習的突破性新功能！
    • （重點推薦） – 新的可視化模式：訓練數據。您現在可以查看和編輯（例如刪除）訓練數據！
    • 儲存/加載選項的改進 + 自動儲存功能。
    • 圖形介面的改進：所有傳感器值現在顯示在螢幕的左側，讓您能輕鬆了解當前的輸入。
    • 菜單的改進：檔案/工具/幫助。

自 2016 年起，除因受疫情影響外，AiTLE 差不多每年都會籌組老師團及學生團往英國出席 BETT Show，並同時安排參與者（團友）出席不同研討會、講座、工作坊、學校參觀等，而在 BETT Show 中，團友除在展覽中向不同伙伴了解教育新科技外，學生們更在不同伙伴攤位中展示其 STEAM 創作及即場向在場，來自世界各地的參與者講述其創作。

在剛過去的三月尾四月初，AiTLE 率領了近 100 位校長、老師、學生及伙伴前往英國出席 BETT Show 2023，同時到法國出席 AI 工作坊及會議。

是次交流團行程豐富，團友獲益良多，亦增進了相互間的聯繫。為令未能出席同工們也能受惠，故籌組了交流團分享會，分享是次交流團中，老師團及學生團的所見所聞，與及一些從英國法國帶回來的軟硬件使用分享。

分享會詳情如下：
