Student AI Learning Series 🎓

> _"Empower every student on the planet to achieve more using tools in the Microsoft Ecosystem."_

Welcome! This repository is the home for all the artifacts from the Student AI Learning Series — a short YouTube series that shows students how to build a professional personal brand online using free Microsoft + GitHub tools. No "developer" background required.

If you watched an episode and want the files, prompts, or demos that went with it, you're in the right place.

What is this series about?

Lots of students want a portfolio website and a solid online presence, but they don't know they already have free tools to build one, and long tutorials scare them off. This series fixes that.

Across ~7–10 short episodes (about 5–7 minutes each), you'll use tools like GitHub Copilot CLI, VS Code, and GitHub Pages to build a complete personal portfolio site — one small, useful step per episode.

The series comes in two phases:

  • Phase 1 · Foundation (Episodes 1–3) — set up your free tools, build your website from a

resume, then customize and deploy it live.

  • Phase 2 · Concepts (Episodes 4–10) — each episode adds one new AI capability to the

*same* site (configuring your AI assistant, giving it context, tools, skills, connecting apps, animations, and cloud tasks). Watch in order and you pick up the foundations of AI engineering, one episode at a time.

Every episode ends with something real you can show off.

How this repository is organized

The repo is intentionally simple. Each episode has its own folder, and shared files live in common/.

.
├── common/ # Shared assets used across multiple episodes (e.g. the mock resume)
├── episode-01/ # Artifacts for Episode 1
├── episode-02/ # Artifacts for Episode 2
├── episode-03/ # ...and so on
├── episode-04/
├── episode-05/
├── episode-06/
├── episode-07/
├── episode-08/
├── episode-09/
└── episode-10/

Episode folders (episode-01 … episode-10)

Each episode-NN/ folder holds everything tied to that episode: the scoping brief, the prompts used on camera, demo assets, screenshots, and any code snippets. Open the README.md inside any episode folder to see what it covers.

The common/ folder

common/ holds files that are reused across episodes so we don't duplicate them. For example:

  • `Jamie Rivera - Resume.pdf` — a mock student resume with dummy data. It's the starting

point for Episode 2, where the portfolio website is generated from a resume, and it carries through later episodes for continuity.

How to navigate as a student

1. Find your episode. Open the folder that matches the episode you watched, e.g. [episode-02/](episode-02/). 2. Read the folder's `README.md` for a quick summary of what that episode builds. 3. Grab the artifacts — prompts, assets, and demo files are right there in the folder. 4. Need a shared file (like the sample resume)? Look in [common/](common/).

That's it. Watch the video, open the matching folder, and follow along.
