Aaaand that's a wrap in Vancouver, ladies and gentlemen: our workshop at the University of British Columbia seems to have gone well:
| Good |
Bad |
- clarity
- data management
- sticky notes
- workflow
- overview/coverage
- resources
- coffee/snacks
- exercises
- how to use programming correctly
- learning terminal
- testing
- learning science
- Python
- helpers
- one step further
- version control
- modules on website
- anecdotes
- general philosophy (organic)
|
- not enough Python
- too fast (esp 2nd day)
- hands-on (second day)
- needed warmup primer
- Greg's jokes
- resources (overwhelming)
- text editor
- software install issues
- too short
- crossover confusion
- too much on data management
- communication prior to course (software install)
- screen real estate
- more version control
- why better than MATLAB
- mystify setup

That's my last road trip until mid-July—it's good to have ended this round on a high note. My thanks again to Ian Mitchell, Adina Chuang Howe, and everyone else who helped or attended.
