Increasing female representation in the field is a grand challenge for academics, policy makers, and society. The main goal of this tutorial is to introduce the holistic approach of the Norwegian University of Science and Technology to attract, retain, encourage, and inspire women to pursue a career in Computer Science. The Girl Project Ada (<a href=\"http:\/\/www.ntnu.edu\/girls\">www.ntnu.edu\/girls<\/a>) and IDUN&#8217;s unique Scientific Mentoring Program offer research work in groups of peers, networking, career planning, and application writing courses.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/drive.google.com\/file\/d\/1WDtXMBeeLDnwBTXAUCgkjmvRYIi3WQhe\/view?usp=sharing\"><strong>Download full details\u2026<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4><strong>\u25bc TUTORIAL by \u010cSOB: What does it take to build a virtual AI-based assistant in a bank; chatbot &#8211;&gt; robot &#8211;&gt; Kate (by \u010cSOB)<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<h5>Wednesday, 22rd September, 9:00 &#8211; 10:30 CEST<\/h5>\n\n\n\n<p>It is not only about technology, there is a very rich process behind it. We will show the process from the very first decision \u2013 our journey from the idea to the implementation. How we change the bank perception: banking sector goes digital very fast \u2013 even faster due to Covid \u2013 \u010cSOB is a technological company with very innovative ways of working. We will show barriers we have to face and how our teams work (we have new teams working fully virtually, too \u2013 some haven\u2019t seen each other face-to-face first few months due to covid but we made it). We will share our PI session rituals, too.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4><strong>\u25bc WORKSHOP: Design a linear regression model in python for predictive analysis<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<h5>Wednesday, 22rd September, 9:00 &#8211; 10:30 CEST<\/h5>\n\n\n\n<p>Regression is an established statistical technique with an enormous number of tutorials online. The added value of this workshop is getting the audience to apply this technique easily using some beautiful libraries available in Python and reap the benefit of these in an innovative manner to solve real life problems they come across. Attendees will be able to learn about linear regression, to design, train and test the model. They will be able to confidently apply the model to any real life problem where linear regression is applicable.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Participants are recommended to <strong>download and install anaconda<\/strong> by following the below mentioned steps:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>1. Anaconda can be downloaded from https:\/\/www.anaconda.com\/products\/individual<br>2. Install appropriate version from anaconda installer<br>3. Type <strong>anaconda<\/strong> in the search bar of your laptop. This will pop up anaconda command prompt.&nbsp;<br>4.

Block-based languages like Scratch remove the issues of syntax, but when children transfer to textual languages like Python, the syntax can get in the way of learning. To address this problem, Felienne Hermans, associate professor at Leiden University has created Hedy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In this workshop, Felienne introduces the pedagogy behind Hedy, shows examples of programs created by kids and reports on technical challenges. Hedy is open source, free to use via&nbsp; any browser and available in 7 different languages. Hedy was launched in early 2020 and since then over 500.000 programs have been created by children worldwide.
