Machine Learning & AI in the Classroom

It is clear that the pandemic has had a dramatic impact on education, which for many has meant an unplanned and rapid move to online and blended learning approaches. In the Summer of 2021 a'Machine Learning & AI' module was developed by PhD student Joyce Mahon at UCD in a collaboration between the SFI CRT in Machine Learning and industry partner Huawei. Joyce is supervised by Dr. Brett Becker and Dr. Brian Mac Namee of the UCD School of Computer Science; and for the duration of this project worked alongside Dr. Keith Quille of TU Dublin, and with student volunteers. 'Machine Learning & AI' module was added to the CS_LINC platform developed in 2020 by the CS_INC team in TU Dublin. CS_LINC provides formal computer science curricula through free and easily accessible online modules.
