INTERACTIVE SIMULATION

Illustrated workflow · The example cards and answers are prewritten. No web search or AI model runs in this walkthrough.

Search agent walkthrough

From a question
to an answer you can inspect.

Choose an example. Follow a six-step search-agent workflow, inspect its sample cards, and see why a useful answer must show what is missing.

A question becomes
a working project.

Students do not simply prompt a chatbot. They design, build and test a code-based AI agent that plans a research path, retrieves information from approved sources, compares evidence, flags uncertainty and pauses for human review before providing an answer.

The AI agent your child builds can:

Accept a research question and break it into sub-questions
Plan which information sources to check and in what order
Retrieve content from approved, pre-selected sources
Compare evidence across multiple sources for consistency
Detect conflicting or missing information
Add citations to every claim in the response
Flag uncertainty and state what it does not know
Pause for human review before delivering the final answer

TOOLS & TECHNOLOGIES COVERED

What your child will
actually learn to use

Not just concepts. Students work with the same tools and patterns used in production AI systems.

Python

The programming language behind most AI systems. Students write real code, not drag-and-drop.

Claude API (Anthropic)

The AI model powering the agent. Students learn to call, prompt, and evaluate a production-grade LLM.

Agentic AI Patterns

Planning, goal decomposition, tool calls, and multi-step reasoning. The architecture behind autonomous AI.

Source Retrieval

Fetching, ranking, and selecting evidence from approved information sources. How AI finds answers.

Evidence Evaluation

Cross-referencing claims across multiple sources. How to catch conflicts, flag uncertainty, and add citations.

Human-in-the-Loop

Safety checkpoints where the agent pauses for human review before delivering answers. Critical for responsible AI.

Two Days. From AI User
to AI Agent Builder.

Each day is 2.5 live hours. Saturday builds the foundation. Sunday builds the agent.

AI agents

are the fastest-growing category in applied AI, moving from research to production across every industry

Agentic AI

goes beyond chatbots. Agents plan, use tools, evaluate evidence, and ask for human review before acting

This workshop

teaches the concepts behind the tools, not just how to use them. The skill set that separates builders from users

Day 1Saturday2.5 live hours

Think Like an AI Agent Builder

Students move beyond prompting an AI chatbot and learn how useful AI agents are designed.

01See the finished Search AI Agent in action
02Understand what makes an AI agent different from a chatbot
03Learn the core building blocks: goals, planning, tools, task state, actions and human review
04Explore how a modern search workflow finds, compares and evaluates information
05Complete hands-on workbook challenges involving agent decisions and source quality
06Identify where an agent can fail and when a person should take control
07Design the workflow, rules and checks for their own Search AI Agent
08Prepare the project blueprint they will build on Sunday

Result: A complete blueprint for the student's AI agent, including what it will do, how it will work and how it will check its answers.

Day 2Sunday2.5 live hours

Build Your Google AI Overview-Style Search Agent

Students turn their blueprint into a working, code-based AI agent with live instructor guidance and hands-on mentorship.

01Build the agent workflow from scratch
02Teach the agent to understand a question and create a research plan
03Connect the workflow to approved information sources
04Make the agent compare evidence instead of accepting the first answer
05Add citations, uncertainty warnings and human-review checkpoints
06Test the agent with normal questions, missing information and conflicting evidence
07Find and fix at least one failure in the agent
08Personalize the project and save their individual code
09Practice demonstrating how the agent works and explaining its limitations

Result: A working Agentic AI code/project that the student built, tested and can demonstrate.

Unlock future workshops at alumni pricing, early access to new programs, exclusive resources, mentor office hours, and a growing network of student AI builders.

“I learned the concepts that
power AI, not just how to use it”

Real messages from students and parents after the workshop.

“Instead of just using AI tools, I learned the concepts that power them. Building my own agent from scratch was incredibly rewarding. I can now explain exactly how it works in an interview.”

Aarav M.

11th grader

“The small cohort made all the difference. The instructor could see my code and help me debug in real time. It felt like a private tutoring session, not a webinar. I genuinely learned something new.”

Priya S.

10th grader

“My son came away with a real project he can explain and demonstrate. Not another participation certificate. As a parent, that is exactly what I was looking for. Highly recommended.”

Ravi K.

Parent

Leave with work you
can explain. Most
people don't.

College applications ask what you have built and learned. This workshop gives you a specific, truthful answer: you designed, coded and tested an AI agent that plans research, checks evidence and asks for human review.

STEMtiq does not guarantee college admission or represent this workshop as college credit. Its value is the student's learning, project and ability to explain the work truthfully.

For students

You designed, coded and tested an AI agent. You can explain every decision because you made them. That is what makes a compelling application story.

For parents

Your student walks away with a real project, not a participation badge. If the student does the work, the certificate and project speak for themselves.

Live guidance in a
small, focused cohort.

100% live online format, not pre-recorded
Small dedicated cohort per workshop
Hands-on mentorship during every build session
Clear certificate requirements published before enrollment
Parent email included for workshop updates and support

The project is an educational exercise modeled on broadly understood search and AI-agent workflows. Google is referenced only as a learning inspiration. STEMtiq is not affiliated with or endorsed by Google.

Questions from parents

What exactly will my child build?

An AI agent that works like Google's AI Overview. It accepts a question, plans which sources to check, retrieves information, compares evidence, adds citations, flags uncertainty and generates a structured answer. The student writes real code to build this agent from scratch using Python and the Claude API. This is not a no-code template.

Does my child need coding or AI experience?

No. The workshop is designed for beginners. Enrolled students receive a short pre-read to prepare, and the instructor guides every step during the live sessions. Students should be comfortable using a computer and following technical instructions.

How is this different from a chatbot tutorial?

Chatbot tutorials teach students to write better prompts. This workshop teaches students to build the system behind the chatbot: an agent that plans, retrieves, evaluates and explains, with safety guardrails and human review built in.

Is the workshop live or pre-recorded?

100% live online. The instructor teaches and builds in real time. Students ask questions, get help and receive feedback during the session in a small dedicated cohort.

What are the dates and times?

Choose one of 2 workshop weekends. Workshop 1: Saturday, October 10, 2026 and Sunday, October 11, 2026. Workshop 2: Saturday, October 17, 2026 and Sunday, October 18, 2026. All run 8:00 AM to 10:30 AM PT, 2.5 hours each day.

How much does it cost and when do I pay?

The early-bird price is $99 USD (regular $149), paid once. Save the enrollment details, then a parent or guardian pays through secure checkout. Available payment methods are shown at checkout. Your seat is confirmed after payment is completed; a pending payment is shown clearly on the confirmation page.

What happens if my child misses a session?

The certificate requires attendance at both sessions and completion of the workshop project. If a student misses a session, they will not be eligible for the certificate. We recommend choosing the workshop weekend that works best for your schedule.

Is this affiliated with Google?

What does the certificate represent?

The STEMtiq Agentic AI Certificate is issued after the student attends both sessions and completes the workshop project. It reflects actual work performed, not just attendance or payment.

Will this help with college applications?

The workshop gives your student a specific, truthful project to describe in applications and interviews. They can explain what they built, how it works and what they learned. STEMtiq does not guarantee college admission or represent this as college credit.

How do I know my child is actually learning?

The workshop is live with a small dedicated cohort. The instructor monitors progress in real time. By the end of Sunday, your student will have a working agent they can demonstrate and explain.

What if the workshop fills up?

Each workshop has a small dedicated cohort. If your selected weekend is full, contact admissions@stemtiq.org for help with another workshop date.
