About this Event

Workshop Overview

The October Technology Workshop will introduce students to the exciting world of machine learning, where computers can be trained to recognize patterns, make predictions, and solve problems. They will explore the two main types of machine learning - supervised learning, where models are trained with labeled examples, and unsupervised learning, where hidden patterns and structures in data are uncovered without labels.

Beginners will gain hands-on practice by grouping objects, spotting patterns, and training simple models, building a strong foundation in how machines “learn.”

Advanced learners will go further by working through real-world scenarios, experimenting with both supervised and unsupervised methods, analyzing data to select the right approach, and refining model performance through guided activities. By the end of the session, advanced students will have developed practical strategies for improving accuracy and efficiency, preparing them for more complex AI and data science challenges.
