• 2-3:30 Tuesday ET January 15, 2019
• Goal(s) of winter session:
  • Outline of summer workshop
  • Learning objectives of interacting with Jupyter:
    • We want teachers to have a positive experience slightly modifying code (within a Jupyter) notebook to see that it’s not magic ... that they could do some simple code hacking to be able to show .. maps/ remote sensed images / layering on data/ make a graph (animate the graph).
    • Give them something to do with their classrooms
    • What do we want teachers to be able do?
      • Displaying visualizations?
      • Make plots?
      • Animate the plots?
      • Change/ filter / cluster? predictions?
      • To do: collect simple examples together - or items that could be modified to be simplified & streamlined

(could I (Shelley) grab the Python code from Chuck on volcanic ash ‘bombs’)
