Getting Started with this Curriculum

Are you a student?

Start with these resources:

  • Student Hub page On this page, you'll find beginner resources, Student packs, and even opportunities to get a free certification voucher. This is a page you'll want to bookmark and revisit regularly, as we update the content at least once a month.
  • Microsoft Student Learn Ambassadors Join a global community of student ambassadors—this could be your gateway into Microsoft.

Students, there are a couple of ways to use this curriculum. First, you can simply read the text and review the code directly on GitHub. If you'd like to run the code in any of the notebooks, read our instructions and find additional tips on how to do so in this blog post.

Self Study

If you'd like to take this course as a self-study project, we recommend forking the entire repository to your own GitHub account and completing the exercises on your own or with a group:

  • Start with a pre-lecture quiz.
  • Read the introductory text for the lecture.
  • If the lecture includes additional notebooks, go through them, reading and running the code. If both TensorFlow and PyTorch notebooks are provided, you can focus on one—choose your preferred framework.
  • Notebooks often include challenges that encourage you to tweak the code and experiment.
  • Take the post-lecture quiz.
  • If the module includes a lab, complete the assignment.
  • Visit the Discussion board to "learn out loud."

For further study, we recommend exploring these Microsoft Learn modules and learning paths.

Teachers, we have included some suggestions on how to use this curriculum.

Pedagogy

We followed two key pedagogical principles while designing this curriculum: ensuring it is project-based and includes frequent quizzes.

By aligning the content with projects, the learning process becomes more engaging for students, and concept retention is improved. Additionally, a low-stakes quiz before class helps set the student's focus on the topic, while a second quiz after class reinforces retention. This curriculum is designed to be flexible and enjoyable, and it can be completed in full or in part. The projects start small and gradually increase in complexity over the 12-week cycle.

A note about quizzes: All quizzes are available in this app, with a total of 50 quizzes, each containing three questions. They are linked within the lessons, but the quiz app can also be run locally; follow the instructions in the etc/quiz-app folder.

Offline access

You can access this documentation offline using Docsify. Fork this repository, install Docsify on your local machine, and then, in the root folder of this repository, type docsify serve. The website will be served on port 3000 on your localhost: localhost:3000. A PDF version of the curriculum is available at this link.
