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!
