Introduction to Machine Learning with Python!

Starts

Hello, my name is Rohan! I have experience with machine learning, and I have conducted multiple research projects on the subject. This course is intended for beginners who want to learn the fundamentals of Python and machine learning. We will have sessions starting May 10th. Sessions and times are flexible, so please message me if you want to change dates/times. Topics we will cover include Python, machine learning concepts, and finally, integrating both! No programming experience is required, and I hope to see you there!

Introduction to Data Science w/ Python 🖥️📊

4th session

Welcome to "Introduction to Data Science with Python" course! This is my second time hosting this course, and I have made adjustments and improvements from my first time. In this course, you'll learn how to use Python for data analysis and gain insights from large datasets. Python is a versatile language widely used in the data science community. You'll explore Python's fundamentals, including syntax and data structures. We'll also cover essential libraries such as NumPy, Pandas, and Matplotlib for efficient data manipulation and visualization. Through hands-on activities and projects, you'll develop the skills to analyze and present data effectively. By the end of this 17 session course, you will be an expert on the basics of data science, and you would have completed your very first data science case study project. Please note that there will be assignments after every session to best learn data science. Get ready for an exciting journey into the world of data science! :)

Comptia A+ Learn & Review

11th session

Hello! My name is Koby and I am ready to help everyone past their Comptia Certifications specifically the A+ Certification. Did you know you can get a job in computer science without the need of going to college? Well, if you have industry certifications, you wouldn't need to. This is going to be a multiple week tutoring series covering every objective from both test, the hardware and software section. Each session, we will go over one objective for the Comptia A+ Tests. At the end of the series, you should be ready to tackle the test and past the certifications. I will also be hosting introduction to computer science sessions on my profile, so if your new and want to consider joining, feel free.

More Sessions Coming Soon, don't want to plan too far ahead.

Get Ready for AP® Computer Science Principles

10th session

This series is intended as a preview for anyone planning on taking AP® Computer Science Principles next year. No prior computing knowledge is expected, but a background in Algebra I/Integrated Math I is expected and needed. We will be going over every major topic assessed on the exam.

This is going to be sort of an "enrichment" class, not in the way SHW has their encrichment subworld, but as something that gives you an opportunity to explore the topic of computing before actually being enrolled in one.

Git and GitHub Fundamentals

Starts

Get to learn the ropes of Git, a fundamental software in development! Get to also learn about GitHub, and how it enables collaboration between developers all over the world as we build a static website together with HTML.

In this series you will learn about:
  1. What are Version Control Systems
  2. Using Git locally
  3. Resolving file version conflicts
  4. Creating a GitHub account
  5. Publishing your code through GitHub
  6. Collaborating with others through Pull Requests
It is recommended that you possess novice or intermediate experience on HTML and the Command Line Interface (CLI). If you are completely new, don't worry!

Software Required (Will be taught to install on sessions):

Please note: Times of the sessions are up to change! If you can't make it on time, please comment down below with your preferred time (and timezone too) and I'll attempt to fit it in my schedule.

Sessions will be added and/or edited as I continue to develop the lesson plan.

How ideas from Computer Science and Physics affect our lives

30th session

We'll go through important ideas in the domain of Computer Science (Game Theory, Exploration/Exploitation tradeoff, Search and Decision making in uncertainty etc.) and Physics (Concept of relativity and time, resonance, entropy/information etc) and understand how we can apply these concepts to understand aspects of our own lives. These sessions will be interactive, so you'll be the explorers and I'll be your guide.

Intro to iOS App Development with Swift

8th session

Welcome to Intro to App Dev!

In this course, we will be taking an interactive approach to getting started with App Development with Swift. We will create a complete iOS app using XCode and Swift, from start to finish. Each week, we'll go further into our application, and by the end of this series, you'll have all the skills you need to make your app development visions come true!

Prerequisites:
1. Although anyone is welcome, you will need an Mac to follow along and gain the most from this course.

More sessions will be added as we go on. It will typically be each week on Monday 4:30 PM (PT).

Exploring Computers

6th session

In this series on Schoolhouse, we will be exploring the different aspects of a computer. From the history of computers down to the components of specific computers, you will learn it all here. So join this journey on exploring what makes a computer really a computer.
NOTE: This is a series that requires a huge time commitment.
P.S. At the end of this series, we will possibly be building our own PC out of cardboard.

Deep Dive into Convolution Nueral Networks (CNN)!

Starts

Hello Everyone!
Welcome to Deep Dive into Convolution Neural Networks. In this series, I will teach you how to program your own convolution neural network (CNN) through Python and I will explain how convolution neural networks work, by providing a full outline on how the layers of the model function and a introduction into backpropagation. I want everyone to think of a image recognition problem that they want to solve before joining this series, as this series will be tailored to each individual's needs, based on the project they choose. Please keep in mind that we are strictly only working with CNNs, so do not choose a project that would involve a different type of model. Finally, at the end of this series I will provide a through explanation of how to choose and prepare a project that will get you to the International Science and Engineering Fair (ISEF), as I was given the oppourtunity to compete this year! Hope to see you soon!

NOTE: we will be using Replit and GitHub through this process. I recommend having a laptop where you can save and quickly access files, if you want to be able to deploy your CNN as a website (which we may cover this this series as well).

AP Computer Science A Exam Only (2024-25)

Starts

This series is still appropriate for students taking an actual AP Computer Science A course, but will assume you are not taking an actual course

Thinking of taking the AP exam next year and don't want to/can't take the course? You've found the perfect series!

This series will be treated as close to a formal class as possible; the only difference being that it follows a mastery learning method (meaning that it allows ALL students to be caught up with everyone else at once) as opposed to taditional learning (where everyone must follow the same pace as everyone else). This means that several quizzes and tests will be assigned throughout the series. And in order to execute this idea of a formal yet mastery learning class, I will only allow us to advance to next concepts if everyone scores a 90% or higher on these assessments to make the series as easy sailing as possible.

Self-studying for an AP exam requires a lot discipline, and so you are expected to be prepared to attend the 5 sessions a week (45 minutes each session), although it's fully expected that you'll miss a few sessions here and there.

Because of this mastery learning method, you will be withdrawn if you still cannot score over a 90% on an assessment assigned over a week ago. If this does happen, i might make another series dedicated to those who've been withdrawn from the series so that you can catchup on your own pace without the guilt of slowing everyone else down.

I can always schedule a Catchup/Office hours session by request if you were absent for a session/need extra help with a topic.
