Fwd: Joint Data Carpentry / Jupyter Notebook curriculum development hackathon, January 9-11 in Berkeley, CA
by Dave Clements 30 Nov '16

30 Nov '16

Hi All, There is no direct tie-in to Galaxy here, but the event is about reproducibility, Jupyter, and curriculum development. If that combination is relevant to you, and you can make it to Berkeley in January, I encourage you to apply by next Monday. Cheers, Dave C ---------- Forwarded message ---------- From: Hilmar Lapp <hilmar.lapp(a)duke.edu> Date: Mon, Nov 21, 2016 at 9:17 AM Subject: Joint Data Carpentry / Jupyter Notebook curriculum development hackathon, January 9-11 in Berkeley, CA To: "<repr-sci-curriculum(a)googlegroups.com>" < repr-sci-curriculum(a)googlegroups.com> Hi all, The RRhack, Data Carpentry, and Jupyter Notebook projects are jointly organizing a curriculum development hackathon on Reproducible Research using Jupyter Notebooks. The event will take place Jan 9-11 at BIDS in Berkeley, CA. A brief summary of the event and how to apply for participation is enclosed below. The full Call for Participation is here: https://git.io/vXAaa I hope in particular those of you who have been interested in porting the RR curriculum to Python are interested in participating, and will apply! Please also redistribute freely to interested people and/or communities as you see fit. -hilmar Reproducible Research using Jupyter Notebooks: Curriculum Development Hackathon Goal: Develop the content of a two-day Data Carpentry workshop teaching how to conduct research reproducibly using the Jupyter notebook Location: Berkeley Institute for Data Science (BIDS), Berkeley, CA Dates and times: January 9 - 11, 2017; 9 am - 5 pm each day To apply: https://goo.gl/aPO71f; deadline December 5, 2016. Successful applicants will be notified by December 12. Synopsis Making science more reproducible has enormous potential to accelerate research advances, including for practicing individuals. Despite this, the tools and approaches that are already available are rarely taught. To address this, we are organizing a 3-day hands-on workshop aimed at developing, and later teaching, a short-course curriculum on using Jupyter notebooks for reproducible research practices. The event will be held January 9 - 11, 2016, in Berkeley, CA, at the Berkeley Institute for Data Science (BIDS). We aim to assemble a diverse and interdisciplinary group of participants, and invite those interested to apply by December 5, 2016, at https://goo.gl/aPO71f.

Fwd: GOBLET AGM - some outcomes
by Dave Clements 14 Nov '16

14 Nov '16

Hello all, And here's the summary of the GOBLET meeting in Brisbane. Cheers, Dave C ---------- Forwarded message ---------- From: Teresa Attwood <teresa.k.attwood(a)manchester.ac.uk> Date: Thu, Nov 10, 2016 at 5:21 PM Subject: GOBLET AGM - some outcomes To: "gobletvotes(a)mygoblet.org" <gobletvotes(a)mygoblet.org> Cc: Teresa Attwood <teresa.k.attwood(a)manchester.ac.uk> Dear All, First of all, thanks to everyone for their massive contributions to the AGM - it was great to see new (and young!) faces, and to feel the energy in the room! One of the things we discussed was the mission and vision of GOBLET. Together, we arrived at new drafts, which we hope better reflect GOBLET's raison d'être: Vision To unite, inspire and equip bioinformatics trainers worldwide Mission To cultivate the global bioinformatics trainer community, set standards and provide high-quality resources to support learning, education and training We distilled the objectives (very roughly) as follows: 1. Portal - to become a pull mechanism and repository 2. Develop branded materials - e.g., Train the Trainer/Teacher packages, etc. 3. Training of a) trainers/teachers and b) users 4. Develop standards 5. Provide resources - surveys, best practice guidelines, icebreakers, technologies for classrooms 6. Fund our objectives 7. Offer network/community forum (e.g., biostars, ISCB connect) 8. Later priority: Trainer recognition – depends on evolution of GOBLET brand We proposed to retain the GOBLET tag line: Empowering people, harnessing communities, networking networks We welcome your thoughts on the new mission and vision, and on the objectives. Best wishes, and thanks again for all your valuable input, Terri On behalf of the new executive board Terri, Michelle, Celia, Annette -- http://galaxyproject.org/ http://getgalaxy.org/ http://usegalaxy.org/ https://wiki.galaxyproject.org/

GTN at 2016 GOBLET meeting
by Dave Clements 10 Nov '16

10 Nov '16

Hi All, Maria Doyle will be officially representing GTN at the GOBLET AGM <http://www.abacbs.org/goblet_agm/> in Brisbane, early next month. Maria works at PeterMac in Melbourne and is a Galaxy veteran. Two other Galaxy veterans, Annette McGrath of CSIRO and Igor Makunin of U Queensland, will also be there to present Galaxy savvy points of view. I'd like to come up with a list of agenda items for Maria to present on behalf of GTN. Last year's list: Last year we discussed what our priorities for the GOBLET meeting <http://galaxy-training-mailing-list-archive.35427.n7.nabble.com/GTN-issues-…> should be. and came up with this list <http://galaxy-training-mailing-list-archive.35427.n7.nabble.com/Galaxy-Trai…>. Here's what I think happened with those 5 items: *1. Enable/Host online discussion about bioinformatics training.* As far as I can tell no action has been taken. *2. Either start sending a regular newsletter, or stop saying we have one.* This has been started. *3. Should GOBLET offer a bioinformatics trainer certification?* I have no emails since the last meeting with the words GOBLET and certify/certification in them. So, no progress. And from Peter VH during last year's meeting: There is not really a concept of Goblet Certified Trainer being thrown > around but there has been a discussion on what a "Goblet branded" set of > training materials or course would involve. The idea is that certain > requirements have to be met to get this "Goblet branded" badge. *4. Make it easier to publish, share, and refine training material.* I should have titled this "Embrace the Carpentry model for training materials." The *Galaxy Community* has actually made a lot of progress on this independent of GOBLET. There was a two day training material hackathon this month. See here <https://wiki.galaxyproject.org/GalaxyUpdates/2016_10#Galaxy_training_contri…>. (I'm hoping to have a summary in the November newsletter as well.) As far as I can tell, GOBLET has not done anything with this. There is an item on this year's agenda about GOBLET's relationship with Software Carpentry, not about training materials per se. *5. Shared Training Datasets are Precious!* No progress from GOBLET here either. However, Björn and Bérenice made progress on this for Galaxy during the October hackathon. This year's list: What should be on this year's list? What are our priorities for the coming year? How can GOBLET help us? How can we help GOBLET? I encourage you to post your ideas to this list. I'll send my suggestions in a separate email as well. -- http://galaxyproject.org/ http://getgalaxy.org/ http://usegalaxy.org/ https://wiki.galaxyproject.org/
