One of the core themes of Hacking Science is that execution is 99% (the other 1% being the idea). In that spirit, we are introducing Hands On Sessions – short overviews on a topic or theme, with lots of examples, and where participants are expected to bring their laptops / tablets.
We have the following Hands On Sessions lined up for the next three weeks:
Friday Jan 4, 1 pm: Hands on Session 1: Client technologies – HTML, Javascript / DOM, CSS, SVG etc. (with Marcel Salathé)
Location: Millennium Science Complex, room W-203A
Friday Jan 11, 2 pm: Hands on Session 2: Mapping Tools – Analysis and Visualization of Spatial Data (with Josh Stevens)
Location: Millennium Science Complex, room W-203A
(Slides & code + data available)
Friday Jan 18, 1 pm: Hands on Session 3: Version control & social coding with git and gitHub (with Alex Shovlin)
