Join us and Digital Skills Education for an exciting YouTube livestreamed interactive lesson for school pupils.
This event is part of a series featuring some of the most popular interactive lessons we have offered throughout the years. Learn more: Announcing a Live Lessons series.
Take part in this interactive activity and learn about collecting data, spotting patterns, machine learning, and artificial intelligence.
Your class will join our data science team as we help stop a gang of rhino poachers.
Learners will use maths, numeracy, and data science skills to analyse CCTV data from across a South African national park. Then, create their own machine learning model that recognises images of poachers, and work together to catch them before it’s too late.
This lesson is based on a real life case study where conservationists and technologists in South Africa are using artificial intelligence and the Internet of Things to help save endangered wildlife.
