Hi Peter, If they've got the material in Github they could publish to Zenodo and that would provide a DOI: https://guides.github.com/activities/citable-code/

Dear fellow carpenters, I've been asked to teach a class to about 100 people in about 2-3 weeks (happy to accept condolences!). The topic is machine learning. As there are wonderful sets of learning materials out there and time is short, I am planning on reusing material written by others. While laying out the plan for this, I was wondering how to cite learning material so that the original creators get attributions alright. For the least, I could mention a URL to their repos/websites and go on. But does that help the original creators? With the carpentries, most (if not all) of the lessons get DOIs per release. Most likely I'll use material that is perfect for my need, but only has a plain github repo to it - without a DOI. Should I ask the material creators to create a DOI then? How do other people approach this? Would love to hear your feedback - Peter With current mobile office hours due to the COVID19 pandemic, I am aware that my working hours may not be your working hours.
