Description

As a pilot course and cognitive course for data science, this course is dedicated to popularizing the basic knowledge, core concepts and thinking models related to data mining and big data for students through a vivid teaching model, from engineering technology, legal norms, and application practice. Describe the beautiful blueprint of data science from different angles. This course is suitable for college students from various backgrounds who are interested in the fascinating field of data science. Existing online data science courses mainly focus on purely technical content such as learning specific algorithms. In contrast, data science is an application-oriented, highly interdisciplinary field that requires systematic knowledge from multiple domains. In addition to algorithmic learning, students also need to recognize the challenges people may face in the real world and the relationship between data and human society. The purpose of this course is to comprehensively understand the key issues in the big data era, improve data awareness, and help students lay a solid foundation for subsequent data science courses.
