Learning Data Science A thoughtful approach for building your Data
Science Skills Amit & Bargava
Data Science as a Craft
Art - Craft - Science
craft | krɑːft noun: An activity involving skill in making
or doing things by hand
How do you learn a craft?
Seek Inspiration
Start with Basics
Do Repetitions
Conduct Deliberate Practice
Focus on Mastery
Learning Data Science Ten guides for skill building
Shailii Understand your learning style. Choose the right approach -
Hacker v/s Structured. Online v/s Classroom. Self-driven v/s Mentor-driven.
Sangha Find your own community. Most of our learning happens
through peers. Find a set of data science peers that you can engage with.
Gunas Understand the basics. Start with learning the math &
statistics needed. Build an intuition on how the algorithms & the libraries work.
Prakerana Learn the data science process Grok the approach to
problem solving with data - Frame, Acquire, Refine, Transform, Explore, Model & Insight.
Abhyaas Practice, Practice, Practice. Repeat the data science process multiple
times on different types of problems.
Ruchi Do projects that interest you. Pick from work domain,
sports, economics, public policy etc. You are more likely to stick through the arduous journey of doing it.
Pradarshan Create a public profile. Share what you do so
people can connect with you. Create a public portfolio on Github or a blog or website.
Pratikriya Get Feedback. Put your work out there. It could
be a small analysis, visualisation, a mini-library. Nothing is too small to share.
Rachit Create a Data Science Portfolio. Work on at least
6 - 8 different projects over the next 1 year to build a portfolio of projects across topics.
Laaya Find your own rhythm. Build and do something every
day, week or month. Find your own cadence and start creating.
