Over three weekends in Fall 2014, a group of volunteers organized the [[Community Data Science Workshops (Fall 2014)]] (CDSW) — the first series of four sessions designed to introduce some of the basic tools of programming and analysis of data from online communities to absolute beginners. This version of the [[CDSW]] were held between November 7th and 22nd in 2014 at the University of Washington in Seattle.
This page hosts reflections on organization and curriculum and is written for anybody interested in organizing their own CDSW — including the authors!
In general, the mentors and students suggested that the workshops were a huge success. Students suggested that learned an enormous amount and benefited enormously. Mentors were also generally very excited about running similar projects in the future. That said, we all felt there were many ways to improve on the sessions which are detailed below.
If you have any questions or issues, you can contact [[Benjamin Mako Hill]] directly or can email the whole group of mentors at cdsw-au2014-mentors@uw.edu.
