Hi ,

​

Most people have had a teacher, at some point in their education, who went above and beyond to make their class extra special.

But how many have had a teacher dress up like Michael Jackson and sing about their subject to the tune of Thriller?

When I studied Machine Learning as part of Georgia Tech's OMSCS program, that's exactly what happened.

You can see the video, featuring Profs Michael Littman and Charles Isbell, below - which, in my opinion, qualifies them as two of the most awesome educators of all time (their lectures were very cool, too):

I recently had the opportunity to talk to Prof Littman about Reinforcement Learning and his new book, Code to Joy on Value Driven Data Science. You can listen to the entire conversation HERE.

Talk again soon,

Dr Genevieve Hayes.
