Kavi Calls the Shots

Kavi the owl puts on a little director's cap. "I want a poster for our class play," she hoots, "with a big yellow moon and the words Tonight at 7." She asks the AI tool. It gives her a poster — a great title, a moon that is too small, Tonight at 8, and her slogan printed twice. "That's my call," says Kavi. She keeps the title, cuts the extra slogan, and changes the moon's size and the time to 7. Then she reads it twice. "The tool helped — but I directed it, and this poster is mine to own!"

A peek inside

My idea: a poster with a big yellow moon and the time 7. The tool made the moon small and wrote 8. What do I do?
I'm the director, so I give the call. The moon is the right idea but too small, so I change its size. The time is wrong, so I change it to 7. The tool followed; I decided.

Try this at home: When you use an AI tool, are you the director or the one who follows?

💬

Questions parents ask

+What does it mean to 'direct' an AI tool?

Directing means YOU are in charge, like a film director. You decide what you want, give the tool a clear direction, then judge what it gives back — you KEEP the good parts, CUT the parts that don't fit, and CHANGE parts to make them right. The tool follows; you lead.

+Who owns the result when a child uses AI to help?

You do. If you directed the tool and put the work out as yours, you own it — which means it is your job to check it is true, make it fair and kind, and fix any mistakes. A tool can help make it, but it cannot be responsible for it. The director owns the result.

+How do you give an AI a clear direction?

Say exactly what you want: what to make, for whom, what to show, how many, and in what style. A clear direction like 'write a 4-line poem about the moon for my little sister, happy and gentle' gets far better help than a vague one like 'make a poem'.

+What age is this 'I Am the Director' lesson for?

It is a Stage 4 lesson for roughly ages 9–10 in KAVI Academy's AI-literacy track. It uses a story, sorting and ordering games, and short scenarios with light reading.

+Is the lesson free?
