Latest schedule + tutorials from the last 3 meetings:

  • All time below: Pacific Daylight Time (UTC-7)

Thing to raise to Steering committee:

  • We prefer/default to live delivery, but they can choose to give us pre-recorded videos, or have videos as back up
    • People talk differently in recording and live scenarios

Pinging @valentina-s, @dcherian, @btupper, and @dgumustel for visibilty.

Note, the ML intro was bumped to the first slot Thursday sliding everything back a slot, and Mental health is last slot on Wednesday.

I spoke with @btupper, @jevanilla (Johnathan Evanilla) and @chross22 (Camille Ross) yesterday. @jevanilla is giving the R data access tutorial and @chross22 is giving the R data viz tutorial. I updated the Google Sheet schedule which is linked to the website

Note, the ML intro was bumped to the first slot Thursday sliding everything back a slot, and Mental health is last slot on Wednesday.

@abkfenris we shuffled things a bit the Mental Health (MH) is on the last slot Wednesday now.
@valentina-s your ML overview is the last slot on Tuesday.
@dcherian we move the dask demostration to the last slot on Thursday.

The reasons for this change are: MH needs to hit folks at the middle of the week to where they ice was already broke but they are not too burnout yet. The ML learning should be ASAP but xarray-dask is mostly a demonstration to show a tool that students need to know when they need to scale things. We don't really want them using that for OHW projects b/c we cannot afford everybody processing terabytes of data as an exercise.

@cathmmitchell I need the GitHub handle for Johnathan Evanilla to add him to the instructor team. Do you have his contact?

Never mind. Found it above in a comment.

Filipe it's jevanilla. Hasn't changed since last year.
