Based on a conversation at an instructor discussion session today, Tanya Flynn mentioned she likes to share some personal coding projects with learners. Through sharing these projects she hopes to inspire learners to think about coding beyond just research or scientific applications and ways they can solve many kinds of problems.
What is an example of a coding project small or large that you have done which leveraged your coding skills for non-academic gain. Examples could include things like: 1) removing duplicate entries in a mailing list for a community group you manage 2) randomly selecting files to be used for an MP3 playlist at a wedding/party 3) Internet of Things (IoT) tinkering to control your home 4) generating art with code 5) developing code to mange your recipe, photo or stamp collections 6) wherever else your imagination has taken you! Can you share an example of what you've done? Links to the code are welcome if you have them. https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLScbIDkVOtFl-FLis1OYNL3zctp8dYvCUWzwTkpBaCcAN_O_sQ/viewform After a few weeks, we'll compile the results into a page with attribution for each and leave it open to further contributions via GitHub.
