Before the workshop
1. Prepare for the live coding exercises. Pick an episode from an existing Software Carpentry, Data Carpentry, or Library Carpentry lesson and read through it carefully. You will use this to practice live coding/participatory instruction for about 3 minutes. Imperfect presentations can generate useful feedback!
2. Read about centrally-organized and self-organized workshops and our handbook content on Teaching and Hosting Workshops – be sure to click through to some of the associated checklists. These summarize commonly asked questions about organizing and running workshops.
