Hi everyone Marianne Corvellec and Karen Word have written up a summary of the recent webinar with Dr Rochelle Tractenberg about assessment and whether workshops work.
See it here: http://www.datacarpentry.org/blog/tractenberg-summary/ This was all sparked by the paper in *PNAS *saying bootcamps don't work. http://www.pnas.org/content/114/37/9854 Our initial response to that paper is here: http://www.datacarpentry.org/blog/reponse-to-null-effects/ Thanks to Marianne and Karen for the great summary of the webinar. Anyone interested in assessment can join the assessment network. Next meeting is 23 March - see here for details: http://pad.software-carpentry.org/assessment-network regards Belinda Belinda Weaver Community and Communications Lead The Carpentries e: bwea...@carpentries.org | p: +61 408 841 882 | t: @cloudaus
