In this data science project, I used decision tree algorithm to predict the survivors in the Titanic tragedy with an accuracy of 83%. I also used conditional probabilities to answer some specific questions such as whether the high survival rate among females was due to gender or wealth or why the survival rate among passengers who embarked at Cherbourg is higher than the survival rate at the two other locations.

The Titanic tragedy is a poignant tale that intertwines ambition, engineering marvels, and human tragedy. The ship was a marvel of its time, considered unsinkable due to its innovative design and luxurious amenities. However, its fate serves as a reminder of the limitations of human ingenuity and the unpredictable forces of nature.
The Titanic was an engineering masterpiece, designed with cutting-edge technology for its era. Constructed by the Harland and Wolff shipyard in Belfast, Ireland, it was a feat of engineering boasting a length of about 882 feet and a width of 92.5 feet. The ship was divided into 16 compartments, supposedly watertight, a design that was believed to make it virtually unsinkable even if several compartments were breached.
Its hull was constructed using high-quality steel, a material believed to be strong and resilient. However, the steel used in the construction had a high sulfur content, making it more brittle in cold temperatures—a crucial factor contributing to the catastrophic iceberg collision.
The ship's opulence was unparalleled, with lavish interiors featuring intricate woodwork, plush furnishings, and state-of-the-art amenities for its passengers. Despite its grandeur, the Titanic was not equipped with enough lifeboats to accommodate all passengers and crew, a tragic oversight that exacerbated the loss of life when disaster struck.
On the fateful night of April 14, 1912, the Titanic, on its maiden voyage from Southampton to New York City, collided with an iceberg in the frigid North Atlantic waters. The impact caused severe damage, breaching multiple compartments and compromising the supposedly watertight design.
The fatal flaw became evident as the compartments filled with water, causing the ship to gradually sink. The inadequate number of lifeboats exacerbated the catastrophe, leading to the loss of over 1,500 lives out of the approximately 2,224 passengers and crew on board.
The Titanic tragedy remains a poignant reminder of the limitations of human hubris, despite advancements in technology and design. It serves as a crucial lesson in maritime safety, influencing subsequent regulations and practices to ensure the safety of passengers and crew on modern-day ships.

A Strategic Approach: GenAI in EducationPeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.
