Session Goal
The session aimed to critically analyze and evaluate educational materials and teaching methods used in Data Science courses, with a focus on improving pedagogical approaches and aligning them with professional expectations.
Key Activities
- Conducted a comparative analysis of two evaluations in a Data Science course, highlighting differences in structure, evaluation style, and pedagogical innovations.
- Performed a critical analysis of didactic content in a Machine Learning course, specifically focusing on decision trees, assessing the technical level, examples used, and practical connections to model learning.
- Evaluated educational materials for a Data Science course, emphasizing conceptual rigor, applied focus, and reasonable demands, while suggesting the creation of a formal document to highlight authorship and curriculum alignment.
- Identified symptoms of a problematic educational environment, including unilateral content control by professors and discrepancies between teaching and evaluation methods, suggesting institutional issues affecting teaching quality.
- Analyzed the pedagogical quality of slides used in a Data Science Lab course, noting both positive aspects and significant problems in technical depth and alignment between teaching and evaluation.
Achievements
- Established a new standard for evaluations that align with professional expectations in the field of Data Science.
- Identified strengths and weaknesses in course content, with recommendations for improvement.
- Suggested the creation of a formal document to enhance the visibility and alignment of educational materials with the curriculum.
Pending Tasks
- Develop a formal document to highlight the authorship and alignment of educational materials with the curriculum.
- Address identified institutional issues affecting teaching quality and faculty morale.
- Implement recommendations for improving course structure and content in Machine Learning and Data Science courses.
