Line 3:
To Do (in rough chronological order):
* Saturday projects
* Go through curriculum and flavor examples to be gov data
* Create an "survey of open government projects" presentation (20 - 30 min) to give folks a taste of what is possible.
 
==Saturday Projects==
Line 12 ⟶ 13:
* API project - Paul responsible for first draft of project (by 1/31/2013)
* Stats project - Shauna responsible for first draft of project (by 1/31/2013)
* Graphical project (visualizing data) - Shauna responsible for first draft of project (by 1/31/2013) (but feel free to take this over from her!)
* Graphical - displaying data project
 
Projects should be:
Line 18 ⟶ 19:
* modular - introduce one thing at a time, possibly in separate scripts labeled "proj1", "proj2" (see [https://github.com/jesstess/Wordplay the original WordPlay project]) for an example.
* well commented (at least for the first draft)
 
Put projects in [https://github.com/shaunagm/IntroToOpenGov this GitHub repo].
 
===API project===
Line 47 ⟶ 50:
'''What should the Stats project do?'''
* Access a file with a cleaned-up dataset.
* Show people what data objects are/look like in python. Introduce or go over how to access elements of arrays/hashes.
*
* Optional: Access a file with a dirty dataset and clean it up (mainly data typing.)
