Model Feature Match

In this worksheet, students read an informational passage comparing small AI models and big AI models, focusing on differences in memory use, accuracy, power needs, and performance. Students then complete a feature chart that requires them to determine whether each trait describes a small model, a big model, or both. This strengthens comprehension as students must use textual evidence and reasoning to categorize each feature correctly. The activity highlights trade-offs between speed, size, cost, and capability, helping students understand why different AI models are used in different situations. Learners build analytic thinking skills as they justify how each feature aligns with a model type. Overall, the worksheet deepens students’ digital literacy and ability to evaluate technology.
