Documenting and evaluating a machine learning model

This unit is designed to develop pupils programming skills in a new engaging context: physical computing, using the BBC micro:bit. They will get acquainted with the host of components built into the micro:bit, and write simple programs that use these components to interact with the physical world.

Machine learning using the micro:bit

Rule-based systems are more advanced than data-driven systems.

Data-driven systems rely on fixed, predefined rules.

Data-driven systems make predictions based on patterns in data.

Data-driven systems do not use any data for decision-making.

What is the key difference between a rule-based system and a data-driven system?

AI systems make {{ }} based on patterns found in large amounts of data.

A traffic light system is an example of a {{ }} system because it follows pre-programmed instructions.

A handwriting recognition system that improves over time is an example of a {{ }} system.

They compare patterns in data and adapt based on feedback.

They memorise data without making comparisons.

They rely on human input for every decision.

a TV recommendation system that suggests shows based on viewing history

a handwriting recognition system that improves over time

a self-learning thermostat that adjusts temperature based on past preferences

a chatbot that always responds "Hi!" when you say "Hello"

Which of the following is an example of a rule-based system?

a physical device that processes information

a set of instructions that a computer follows to perform a task

Which of the following best describes a computer program?

a step-by-step set of instructions to solve a problem

A program is written using a {{ }} language, which a computer can understand.

to show output, such as numbers, letters or images

to capture user input, like button presses

to measure the temperature of the surroundings

What is the main function of the LED display on the micro:bit?

What is the purpose of the accelerometer on the micro:bit?

to capture user input and trigger actions in a program

What is the purpose of the buttons on the micro:bit?
