Binder Do-athon with The Turing Way

sgibson91 commented 4 years ago

Summary

This issue will track the development and management of the Binder Do-athon event (hopefully!) co-organised with The Turing Way.

The proposal for this event is a "Train the Trainers" style one day workshop where we help educators translate their Jupyter Notebook-based courses onto mybinder.org, and then assist them in contributing back to the mybinder.org documentation and/or codebase.

What needs to be done?

[ ] Find a time
[ ] Find a venue (most likely the Turing)
[ ] Write an advertisement and publish (Eventbrite, Turing Way newsletter, SSI distros?)
[ ] Organise catering
[ ] Plan agenda for the day
[ ] Recruit helpers (e.g. git, GitHub)

Who can help?

Ideas from chat with Malvika:

host a "test" event in late June with a small number of specifically invited educators (proof of concept)
if successful, host a second larger event in October
translate resources into a Carpentry (bonus)

I'm going to close this in favour of another strategy following chats with Chris Holdgraf and Rachael Ainsworth
