Line 14:
* '''Session 3 (Saturday May 31st)''': [[CDSW# Session 3 (Saturday May 31st)|Data analysis and visualization]]
Our organization and the curriculum for Sessions 0 and 1 were borrowed from the [[http://bostonpythonworkshop.com/ Boston Python Workshop
* '''Morning, 10am-noon''': A 2 hour lecture
* '''Lunch, noon-1pm'''
* '''Afternoon, 1pm-3:30pm''': Practice working on projects in 3 breakout sessions
* '''Wrap-up, 3:30pm-4pm''': Wrap-up, next steps, and upcoming opportunities
We did not take roll or even track how many people were present. Our feeling was that nearly every student who came to the first week (Sessions 0 and 1) came to Session 2. Retention between the second two sessions was much worse with perhaps only 60% of the full group returning for session 3. We attribute this both to poor timing (the weekend before finals at UW) and to the long space between the sessions.
