Project Brief

Complete the "Build & Explain a Simple Classifier" project across weeks 11-12.

What to Build

  1. Run full classification pipeline on provided toy dataset
  2. Report accuracy
  3. Write plain-language explanation of what the model does
  4. Identify one limitation and one possible bias source

Self-Assessment Rubric

  • Does my code run without errors?
  • Can I explain what each step does?
  • Did I identify a limitation, not just what worked?
  • Did I avoid overclaiming what the model can do?
