Intro:

• comma after "participate in"? Depends if we are using Oxford commas (these have been used elsewhere)
• second bullet point, suggested rewrite: "Describe innovative uses of AI in the cultural heritage context today" (rewritten for clarity)
• fifth bullet point, suggested rewrite: "Reflect on the ethical implications of applying machine learning to cultural heritage collections and discuss potential mitigation strategies" (missing definite article for "ethical implications")

[CatitoPotato]

Episode 1:

Who is this lesson for?

• para 1, sentence 2: "These technologies offer many potential benefits to the cultural sector but also raise challenges and difficult questions" (correct "raises" to "raise")
• para 2, sentence 1: "Our aim with this lesson is to empower GLAM staff to support and participate in machine learning-based research and projects with heritage collections. We also aim to give GLAM staff the foundation to undertake research and projects on machine learning in their own right." (break up into two sentences for clarity, correct "machine learning based" to "machine learning-based")

What will we be covering in this lesson?

• second bullet point, suggested rewrite: "Describe innovative uses of AI in the cultural heritage context today" (rewritten for clarity)
• fourth bullet point, suggested rewrite: "Reflect on the ethical implications of applying machine learning to cultural heritage collections and discuss potential mitigation strategies" (missing definite article for "ethical implications")

What will we not be covering in this lesson?

• missing Oxford comma after "statistics", missing full stop after "maths"

Key Points

Episode 2:

Metadata: Objectives

• bullet point 1, suggested rewrite: "Understand Machine Learning as a subfield of AI and name two other subfields" (clarity)
• bullet point 2, suggested rewrite: "Name four types of machine learning and describe the difference between supervised and unsupervised learning" (change incorrect "and" to "of")

Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning

• para 1, sentence 1, suggested rewrite: "Artificial Intelligence has existed as a field of study since the 1950s (Dartmouth Conference, 1956)." (clarity)
• para 1, sentence 2, suggested rewrite: "This broad topic encompasses a number of subfields including but not limited to: Logic, Probability, Knowledge Representation, and Machine Learning." (clarity, remove hyphen from "subfield")

From logic to learning (should this be "From Logic to learning"?)

• para 1, bullet point 1, suggested rewrite: "It is raining, therefore I will carry an umbrella." (only bold "is", comma after "raining", full stop before closing quote marks)
• para 2, sentence 1, suggested rewrite: "Logical rules are based on things being True or False, but the world is not so clear cut." (missing comma before "but" - separating two independent clauses so comma needed)
• para 2, bullet point 1, suggested rewrite: "'It might rain today. Should I take an umbrella?" (break into two sentences, remove full stop after closing quote marks)
• para 3, bullet point 1: remove full stop after closing quote marks
• para 5, sentence 1, suggested rewrite: "Describing something as intuitively simple as an umbrella is difficult. Although we have a rough conceptual idea, there isn't a fixed physical description." (break into two sentences for clarity, missing comma after "idea")
• para 5, sentence 2: missing comma after "parts", switch hyphen for colon.

What is Machine learning (should "learning" be capitalised here?)

• para 1, sentence 2, suggested rewrite: "Machine Learning offers systems that find rules, learn, and make predictions from data, without being explicitly programmed to do so." (rewrite for clarity, added comma after "data", and correct misspelling of "explicitly")

Activity: each bullet point here should either end with a full stop or not (consistency

• para 2, sentence 1: remove comma after "machine learning" (or break this sentence into two sentences)
• para 2, bullet point 1: suggest breaking into two sentences for clarity
• para 2, bullet point 2: add "the system is" before "given"
• para 2, bullet point 3: add "the system is" before "learns"

Note

• para 1, suggested rewrite: "Predicting a numerical value is known as Regression. Francis Galton coined the term Regression in the 19th century to describe a biological phenomenon: over generations, the heights of descendants of tall ancestors tend to fall towards a normal average. This phenomenon is also known as regression toward the mean (Regression Analysis)."

• para 3, sentence 1: remove comma after "like"

• para 3, sentence 2: add comma after "month"

• para 3, sentence 4, suggested rewrite: "There are two categories (Yes or No), so this is a binary classification task." (clarity)

Supervised vs unsupervised learning

• para 1, sentence 2: add comma after "scenario", change "which" to "that"
• para 2 (after table), sentence 3, suggested rewrite: "The target is usually the number of groups wanted. The algorithm will place data points into each group in order to maximize the similarity of group members." (break into two sentences, change "maximum" to "maximize")
• para 5 (after activity), sentence 2: add comma after "data"
• para 5, sentence 5: add comma after "advance"
