[datameet] Data science kids - Call for volunteers - Pune - 11 October

2015-09-20 Thread Shashank Srikant
Hello all

Aspiring Minds Research (research.aspiringminds.com) had organized a data
science camp for kids from 5th to 10th grades in June followed up by
another camp earlier this month.

It was a fun-event where 15-20 kids spent half a day learning the basics of
data science. They went through a hands-on exercise in the full-cycle of a
supervised learning task and ended up building a simple predictor!

A blog detailing the kids' experience and the design of the exercise is
available at - http://datasciencekids.org

After having organized these fun camps at Gurgaon and Bangalore, we're
organizing the Pune-edition of this camp on 11-October (it's a Sunday;
three weeks from now).
We've reached out to ~50 schools in Pune and will soon shortlist kids
who'll participate in this camp.

If you'd like to volunteer and be a part of this fun-filled day, you're
more than welcome to!
We had an amazing person from Bangalore who responded to a similar call
posted on datameet earlier this month and helped mentor a bunch of kids and
walk them through our exercise.

You could write to me on shashank.srik...@aspiringminds.com in case this
sounds exciting to you and if you want to be a part.

Look forward to your participation!

Shashank
