Principles of Artificial Intelligence is a free beginner course from EIT Campus, online. It ends with a free certificate. EIT Campus doesn't say how long it takes.
A free introduction for anyone, students included, who wants the core ideas: intelligent agents, problem solving, knowledge representation, machine learning and decision-making. The drag-and-drop exercises make it more hands-on than most free primers. The caveats: EIT Campus gives a range of 8 to 20 hours rather than a fixed length, and you need to log in. For a free course with Python projects, try CS50's Introduction to Artificial Intelligence with Python.
