== General Information == | |||
Data Carpentry's aim is to teach researchers basic concepts, skills, and tools for working with data so that they can get more done in less time, and with less pain. | |||
Our curriculum includes: | |||
* Day 1 morning: Better Spreadsheet skills and introduction to more powerful tools | |||
* Day 1 afternoon: Introduction to databases, combining and querying data using SQL | |||
* Day 2 morning: Introduction to the shell, Introduction to R and managing data in R | |||
* Day 2 afternoon: Collaborative data management & publishing data | |||
The concepts, skills, and tools we teach are domain-independent, but example problem cases and datasets will be taken from organismal and evolutionary biology, biodiversity science, ecology, and environmental science. | |||
Data Carpentry's teaching is hands-on, so participants are required to bring their own laptops. (We will provide instructions on setting up the required software several days in advance) ''There are no pre-requisites, and we will assume no prior knowledge about the tools.'' | |||
Updates will be posted to this website as they become available. | |||
Additional information is available at the github web site for the project: | |||
