Module 06: Segmentation 101

Teaching Deck

Learning Objectives

  • Explain segmentation goals and constraints
  • Identify merges, splits, and boundary errors
  • Apply a basic correction workflow
  • Report segmentation quality with clear metrics

Session Outcomes

  • Learners can complete the module capability target.
  • Learners can produce one evidence-backed artifact.
  • Learners can state one limitation or uncertainty.

Agenda (60 min)

  • 0-10 min: Frame and model
  • 10-35 min: Guided practice
  • 35-50 min: Debrief and misconception correction
  • 50-60 min: Competency check + exit ticket

Capability Target

Detect and categorize core segmentation errors and execute one correction cycle with documented quality impact.

Concept Focus

Core Workflow

  • Load segmented patch.
  • Identify merge/split candidates.
  • Apply correction protocol.
  • Recalculate quality indicators.
  • Log decisions.

60-Minute Run-of-Show

  • 00:00-08: segmentation goals.
  • 08:00-22: error taxonomy examples.
  • 22:00-36: guided correction round.
  • 36:00-48: quality-metric interpretation.
  • 48:00-60: debrief and competency check.

Misconceptions to Watch

  • Surface and correct one likely misconception during debrief.

Studio Activity

Run one correction loop on a sample patch set and submit before/after notes.

Activity Output Checklist

  • Evidence-linked artifact submitted.
  • At least one limitation or uncertainty stated.
  • Revision point captured from feedback.

Assessment Rubric

  • Minimum: correct error labels and one valid correction.
  • Strong: correction prioritization tied to downstream impact.
  • Failure: correction without evidence of quality change.

Exit Ticket

Explain when you would defer a correction instead of fixing immediately.
