The course on FutureLearn
- FutureLearn site
- This single DCU module consists of 5 FutureLearn courses:
- Introduction to AI
- State space Search
- Heuristic Search
- Machine Learning with Neural Networks
- Machine Evolution
FutureLearn "weeks" and calendar weeks
- FutureLearn assigns 4 "weeks" to each course.
- So FutureLearn assigns 20 "weeks" to the entire module.
- The idea is that many FutureLearn courses are done in your own time, whenever, and are never graded.
- We are doing this course in a shorter time and are being graded.
You must track the DCU semester.
- So the rule is:
Do 2 FutureLearn "weeks" per week.
Your plan for the DCU semester should be as follows:
- Introduction to AI
- Calendar week 1: Do FutureLearn weeks 1 and 2.
- Calendar week 2: Do FutureLearn weeks 3 and 4.
- State space Search
- Calendar week 3: Do FutureLearn weeks 1 and 2.
- Calendar week 4: Do FutureLearn weeks 3 and 4.
- Heuristic Search
- Calendar week 5: Do FutureLearn weeks 1 and 2.
- Calendar week 6: Do FutureLearn weeks 3 and 4. 1st practical.
- Machine Learning with Neural Networks
- Calendar week 7: Do FutureLearn weeks 1 and 2.
- Calendar week 8: Do FutureLearn weeks 3 and 4. 2nd practical.
- Machine Evolution
- Calendar week 9: Do FutureLearn weeks 1 and 2.
- Calendar week 10: Do FutureLearn weeks 3 and 4.
The FL site
- I did not edit the FL site. A different team did.
- Let me know any problems with the site and I will try to get that team to fix them.
Many or most videos do not have "thumbnail" images on them. In fact the image is giving a console error.
Just click to play. The video is still there.
