To help promote digital literacy and sharing of computational and data science skills, the Research Bazaar will include contributed workshops on Feb 10th, 17th, and 24th. The planning committee seeks proposals for interactive, inclusive workshops related to the theme of data science for the social good. Presenters from all disciplines are encouraged to apply.
Format:
Workshops will be held in designated Zoom rooms where attendees will be able to join and speak with the presenters. Presenters will have access to zoom features such as breakout rooms, reactions, etc as needed for the format they propose.
Proposed sessions should:
- Incorporate active-learning activities (
https://blendedtoolkit.wisc.edu/deliver/activelearning/), be interactive (for example, using live coding)
- Use real data
- Platform/operating system agnostic
- Reproducible or openly available lessons are preferred
- Preference will go to early-career academics/professionals
The planning committee welcomes workshop proposals on all topics related to data science and/or research computing skills or tools. The following should be seen only as a source of possible inspiration, not as suggestions or requirements: Web Scraping, Text Mining, Natural Language Processing (NLP), Machine Learning for Beginners, Linear Modeling, Model Building, Data Tidy-ness, SQL, Database Curation, other related tools.
