Neural Network Training Projects Using Visual Programming

I've spent the last year building neural network projects with students aged 10-16 in our fabrication lab, and here's what surprised me: visual programming environments have made neural network concepts more accessible than I ever thought possible. You don't need calculus or advanced Python skills anymore—tools like Scratch extensions, TensorFlow.js blocks, and MIT's Teachable Machine let students train real models that classify images, predict patterns, and recognize gestures. This guide walks you through five neural network…
