Software Carpentry workshop

Dear researcher, The University of Twente will be organizing its second online software carpentry workshop. During these mornings, the basics of Unix shell, Python, and Git/Github will be explained to researchers with no/limited prior knowledge of these software packages. 

We are looking for helpers 

During the workshop, we will need a few people to help out in case learners run into problems or get stuck. Helpers answer questions and help learners work through things like installation problems, error messages, and unexpected output. You do not need to be an expert in the tools we are covering, just to have used one or more of them and be comfortable helping people troubleshoot. 

At this workshop, we are planning on covering Unix shell, Git/Github and Python. If you are interested, you can see the materials for Unix Shell, Git, Python , and the rest of the curricular materials here. 

The carpentries will be organized from 8.30 - 13.15 hrs. on: 

• Monday October 11^th, Unix shell 
• Tuesday October 12^th, Python
• Wednesday October 13^th, Python 
• Thursday October 14^th, GIT/Github

For helpers it is possible to help on all dates or it is possible to choose one of these dates.
