Bioc-teaching meeting: Monday 6 July at 5pm CEST

[lauren...@gmail.com]

Dear all,

It seems that Monday 6 July at 5pm CEST is the time slot that earns most votes: 7 'yes' + 1 'if need be'. Given that this will be our first meeting, it will be important to get a majority on board for this Bioc curriculum planning kick-off meeting.

I will send meeting details in due time.

Looking forward to meeting you all.

Best wishes,

Laurent

(1) Testing, in my case. But I'm quite keen to test an open-source alternative to the commercial options.

Hi again,

from the doodle it seems that the best time for the next Bioc/Carpentries discussion is Monday, August 17, 1pm CEST, and that we may be able to accommodate participants from at least three continents :) Please book this time in your calendar, and we’ll send out a meeting invite a bit closer to the day. 

Thanks

Charlotte

[Erin Becker]

Thank you for organising this Charlotte! I won't be able to attend, as it will be 4am Pacific US, but Toby Hodges will have just started as an official Carpentries Core Team member mid-August and will be able to represent the Core Team. :-)

Best,

Erin

Thanks Erin, and great that Toby can attend! Sorry for the early hour this time - it’s really great to have a global team, but it does bring some challenges :)

Hi everyone,

just a reminder that the next Bioconductor teaching call will take place on Monday, November 9 at 2pm CET. The plan for this time is to discuss what properties we would need from a data set that could ideally be used throughout the intro module, and how/where we can find such a data set. Thus, we’d encourage everyone to give some thought to the types of figures/analyses that we would like to include in the module (based on the high-level objectives that we worked on previously), and what we would need from the data in order to achieve this goal. 

The jitsi link is the usual one: https://meet.jit.si/BioconductorTeaching 

See you on Monday,

Charlotte & Laurent

Hi everyone,

As agreed during the Bioconductor teaching call yesterday, I started assembling a short abstract for the EuroBioc conference. You can find it here: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1J3OAGauhy4CwDvOkZke2X3E4jjufRAxeTcuqMvmTVO8/edit?usp=sharing (I’ve added the link also to the regular Google Doc). Please have a look and suggest any edits in there, at your earliest convenience but latest on Sunday (Nov 15), so that it can be submitted before the deadline. As a reminder, we are submitting this for a short talk (8 min). 

Thanks!

Charlotte

[Robert Castelo]

Thanks Charlotte,

i've made a few edits in the "suggestion" mode, mostly to emphasize the fact that our efforts are focused on developing training material for The Carpentries project.

cheers,

robert.

I love group editing! I didn’t have any ideas for the abstract at first, but then after Robert put in his suggestions, I felt there were some needed connections between the Carpentries project and why we had the goals we did. I added few sentences on instructor training and current R modules, but I’m not super happy with my wording so please improve if you can.

Hi everyone,

just a quick reminder of the Bioc teaching call on Monday, December 7 at 2pm CET. The jitsi link, as usual, is https://meet.jit.si/BioconductorTeaching.
The agenda is available in the Google Doc - the main topic will be exercise design, which Toby will kindly guide us through.
Last time we converged towards using the data set proposed by Kevin (from https://www.nature.com/articles/s41467-018-07329-0) for the intro module. Kevin has prepared a repository with information on how to pull down the data here: https://github.com/kevinrue/bioc-teaching-intro. Running dev/geo-download.sh followed by dev/make-se.R should generate the SummarizedExperiment object (I just tried and it worked fine).

[Kevin RUE]

Hi all,

For the purpose of the meeting agenda, I've got to leave at 3pm sharp at the latest, so I'd appreciate it if I could present my progress on the dataset as soon as possible, in case I need to disappear early.

Best wishes

Kevin

Hi everyone,

Happy New Year! Just a quick reminder that the next bioc-teaching call will take place on Monday, January 11 at 2pm CET. The jitsi link is https://meet.jit.si/BioconductorTeaching. One of the agenda items this time will be to discuss how the group can participate in the newly launched Carpentries lesson development study groups (https://carpentries.org/blog/2020/12/lesson-development-study-groups/).

In addition, we wanted to draw your attention to the fact that the Carpentries is currently running a bonus module on online training for certified Carpentries instructors (see more at https://carpentries-incubator.github.io/instructor-training-bonus-modules/bonus_module_calendar/index.html).

I have added the high level suggestion for the intro course: https://github.com/Bioconductor/bioconductor-teaching/blob/master/overview.md
