Roadshows
Would you like to learn more about
- making a model in Landlab
- best practices in writing code for your research
- using GitHub to store and safeguard your work
but you don't have the time or money to visit CSDMS in Boulder for the Annual Meeting, ESPIn, or training?
Then let CSDMS come to you with the CSDMS Roadshow!
The idea
In the CSDMS Roadshow, CSDMS research software engineers (RSEs) visit your group, lab, or department and present one to three days of highly interactive instruction. Lessons are drawn from the CSDMS Ivy course material, which includes information on shell, Python, git, conda, Landlab, BMI, pymt, and best practices in scientific programming. The Roadshow also includes a brief overview of CSDMS, focusing on the resources we provide for students and early-career scientists.
The plan
The only equipment needed for a CSDMS Roadshow are:
- a classroom or conference room,
- a projector, and
- an internet connection.
Participants should bring a laptop with a web browser and an internet connection to be able to participate interactively with the lessons. All course material will be run on the OpenEarthscape JupyterHub.
A sample agenda for one to three days of instruction are given in Table 1 below.
| Day 1 | Day 2 | Day 3 |
|---|---|---|
| CSDMS Overview | Git I | Git II |
| Shell I | Conda | BMI |
| Python I | Python II | pymt |
| Landlab I | Landlab II | Best Practices |
The topics and content of a CSDMS Roadshow can be customized.
