overview of course

overview | creative commons

At Data Education in Colleges, we’re keen to provide as much open-source information and materials as we can, to aid lecturers and students, whether to use in classes or give students additional data and digital skills.

With that in mind, all of our material is open-source and released under a Creative Commons so please feel free to use, share etc.

You find in this course we have an overview of the history of AI, early applications and the integration of AI into every part of our lives.

 

We felt it was important to start with this to contextualise the tools and integrations which we will be covering.

 

Each section of the course comes within information and catch up quizzes to use within your classes.

We hope you find the materials useful.

Introduction

We have set the course up over a total of 9 pages within this website.

This is to facilitate the use of the materials within your own classes if you so wish. For example you may just wish to cover History of AI, or ChatGPT… in which case just use those pages.

At the foot of each page you’ll see the course listings which will allow you to navigate to whichever section you wish
