Teaching Machine Learning and AI is HARD
You are expected to:
- Be an expert in advanced mathematics
- Have a PhD in computer science
- Possess decades of industry experience
But it's actually really simple:
- Start with fundamental concepts such as supervised and unsupervised learning and build up gradually.
- Employ strategic tactics like interactive simulations in explaining these concepts to your students.
- Leverage online resources and communities for learning and support. The r/MachineLearning is a good place to start.
- Apply real-world problems to practice and reinforce learning in your students. Check
