Virtual - Zoom invite will be sent after registration
On August 19th-21st, 2024 Chico State, CSU San Bernardino, and CSU Fullerton are jointly hosting a Data Carpentry workshop for current graduate students, instructors, and our state-wide community. All Carpentries workshops are entirely volunteer run events.
The Carpentries is a fiscally sponsored project of Community Initiatives. They teach skills that are immediately useful for researchers, using lessons and datasets that allow researchers to quickly apply what they have learned to their own work.
The curriculum will include:
Running Python
Working with data in Python (tidying and graphing)
Data types and type conversion
Built in functions and what they do
Writing functions
The target audience is anyone from learners who have little to no prior computational experience to those with experience and just want a bit of a refresher, and the instructors put a priority on creating a friendly environment to empower researchers and enable data-driven discovery. Even those with some experience will benefit, as the goal is to teach not only how to do analyses, but how to manage the process to make it as automated and reproducible as possible.
We hope to see you at the workshop!
This workshop is supported by the Chico State Data Science Initiative, and Project DA-FANH [grant no. 2021-77040-34880] from the USDA National Institute of Food and Agriculture. Project DA-FANH aims to foster an active, inclusive, and diverse community of learners and instructors that promote and model the importance of software and data in the Food, Agriculture, Natural Resources and Human Sciences.
