Student Daily Bulletin April 20

Do you need writing help during quarantine? The Rising Writer's Club is a peer editing group that offers writing support to BHS students. During the school closure, we are offering online peer editing help to anyone who would like it! Please send any essays or other writing assignments you would like help with to bhsrisingwriters at gmail.com <https://meet.google.com/linkredirect?authuser=2&dest=mailto%3Abhsrisingwriters%40gmail.com> (send any questions to the same email).


AI / Machine Learning for Youth Reboot
AI / Machine Learning for Youth Reboot launched on Thursday, April 16, from 2-4pm, AI / Machine Learning for Youth (funded by BHSDG) will reboot as a Distance Learning computer club. This club is now available to all BUSD students with a target age of high school (all are welcome). Meetings will initially be conducted online through Google Meet. 

The current plan is to analyze the Coronavirus Data using Python. Absolutely no knowledge of computer programming is expected. By the end of the first session, you will use Python to analyze statistics and generate beautiful graphs using a Coronavirus Dataset that is updated daily. All sessions will be conducted with Google Colaboratory notebooks.

In order to attend, students must join a new AI / Machine Learning for Youth in Google Classroom with the following code: myoivv7. Joining the Google Classroom is currently the only way to get join codes for live sessions.

This is a great opportunity for students seeking enrichment, new opportunities, valuable tech skills, objective coronavirus information, and a strong foundation in data analytics and machine learning. 

If you have any questions, please email coreywade at berkeley.net <mailto:coreywade at berkeley.net>.
