I think this is a good idea. Do you think it should be a more detailed breakdown of timings, or just the overview you've described here?
Thanks for your perspective @JCSzamosi! Good question! I think maybe a little more detail on how to split the half days would be helpful, I drafted bit more below.
Schedule A(2 days OR 4 half days)
Schedule B (2 days OR 4 half days)
Schedule C (3 days OR 6 half days)
That looks good to me. I don't think we need to run something like this by the curriculum committee. Do you want to create a pull-request for it?
From what I've heard people usually teach either the data organization, the unix shell, and data wrangling OR data organization, the unix shell, and the R lesson as both options are about 2 days/4 half days of materials. I've met with a few instructors teaching this for the first time and they were surprised to hear they couldn't teach all 4 lessons in 2 days/4 half days. Perhaps we should add a few common schedules to the front page.
1: data organization, the unix shell, and data wrangling (2 days/ 4 half days) 2: data organization, the unix shell, and the R lesson (2 days/ 4 half days) 2: data organization, the unix shell, data wrangling, and the R lesson (3 days / 6 half days)
