To join this class, you should be well-practiced at programming in some other language. No beginning programmers please, but you can certainly be new to Python. If you are a beginner, or would prefer a weekly class, please consult our catalogue: http://course.ucsc-extension.edu/modules/shop/index.html?action=courseSearch ONLINE CLASS: If you would prefer an online class, you will enjoy: http://course.ucsc-extension.edu/modules/shop/index.html?action=section&OfferingID=1531625&SectionID=5276917 The official start date is Sept 8, but if you enroll now, you can start now and get started today. ---- Most companies will reimburse their employees for a course at UCSC, so it's a great opportunity to learn Python, probably for free. ____ All our Python courses are hands-on with short lectures, and lots of exercises where we study the solutions after some lab time. Questions are always welcome; discussion and pair-programming are encouraged. Please come, and send students! --- And, the first quarter of the professional course is available for $20 at Udemy.Com! I'm so busy that I can't say when the rest of the course will be there, but I'm working on it. https://www.udemy.com/pythonic-python-part-i-the-basics/ I hope you find one of these classes useful to your schedule and your taste.

We're a group in Berkeley called Code Self Study ( http://www.meetup.com/codeselfstudy/ ) that meets at least twice per week to study programming. The group is open to all languages, but probably 70-80% of members are focused on Python. The events are free and open to all levels of experience. * Beginners can get help with their tutorials, projects, and exercises. * Experienced programmers can mentor the beginners and/or work on their own projects. We have an optional project-based format where people can split into groups for monthly projects. At the end of each month, the groups demo their projects on the projector. If anyone would like to give a presentation on a Python topic on a Wednesday or Saturday, send me an email. The meeting rooms can comfortably hold up to about 30 people (or more, depending on the day), and there is a projector. There are many events in San Francisco, South Bay, and Oakland, but not much going on in Berkeley, so we're meeting at least twice per week over here---more often when we can find event space. One goal of the group is to rent a dedicated space to create a kind of self-directed educational center for programmers in Berkeley. If the idea of a programming space in Berkeley interests you and you would like to help with the project, there is more information here: http://codeselfstudy.com/edu If you're learning Python or are interested in helping people learn Python, hope to see you at one of our meetings.

URL: From mikeyp at lhrc.com Fri Aug 14 16:19:46 2015 From: mikeyp at lhrc.com (Michael Pittaro) Date: Fri, 14 Aug 2015 07:19:46 -0700 Subject: [Baypiggies] iPython 4.0 In-Reply-To: References: Message-ID: +1 - A major achievement. The SFBay ACM has an upcoming talk on interesting applications of Notebooks for collaborative science. This one could be really interesting. The blurb is below. mike http://www.sfbayacm.org/event/2015-08-24 Project Jupiter https://jupyter.org/ evolved from IPython notebooks, and now supports a wide variety of programming language back-ends. Notebooks have proven to be effective tools used in Data Science, providing convenient packages for what Don Knuth coined as "literate programming" in the 1980s: code plus exposition in markdown. Results of running the code appear in-line as interactive graphics -- all packaged as collaborative, web-based documents. Some have said that the introduction of cloud-based notebooks is nearly as large of a fundamental change in software practice as the introduction of spreadsheets. O'Reilly Media has been considering the question, "What comes after books and video?" Or, as one might imagine more pointedly, what comes after Kindle? To that point we have collaborated with Project Jupyter to integrate notebooks into our content management process, allowing authors to generate articles, tutorials, reports, and other media products as notebooks that also incorporate video segments. Code dependencies are containerized using Docker, and all of the content gets managed in Git repositories. We have added another layer, an open source project called Thebe that provides a kind of "media player" for embedding the containerized notebooks into web pages. Some examples include: https://beta.oreilly.com/learning https://beta.oreilly.com/ideas/jupyter-at-oreilly http://notebooks.codeneuro.org/ An early POC, working with Nature magazine, showed how peer-reviewed scientific articles could be provided such that readers could interact with the code+data: http://www.nature.com/news/interactive-notebooks-sharing-the-code-1.16261 - The overall goal is to support repeatable science -- or perhaps one as might say "open science". The tools of Computer Science and Software Engineering are being leveraged to create this. Data Science provided the initial examples; however, now this tooling is being adopted rapidly by genomics and other areas of life science. Overall at O'Reilly Media, we see these frameworks working together as first steps toward a retooling of learning platforms in general. Experiences teaching with MOOC platforms such as edX have shown that instrumentation and analysis can be bottlenecks for effective pedagogy. Meanwhile, programs at Cal Tech and other institutions have been advancing notions of "inverted classrooms" as an alternative way to leverage online platforms. The use of cloud-based containerized notebooks allows for much better instrumentation and measurement of student interactions, to help model pedagogical aspects of this work. This talk will also consider how and where Data Science practices can benefit Education through an evolution of software platforms.

Our collaboration with the O'Reilly team on this front has been wonderful, and I hope it will be a good conversation. I've put it on my calendar, and barring any unforeseen last-minute issue I should be able to make it.

Message-ID: 'Hello' from your east coast cousins (Boston Python meetup); I'm a former Baypiggy thus why I'm even on the list. I was hoping to get in touch with the person who is responsible for doing the Baypiggy meetup video recordings/streams. The Boston Python meetup group is considering a recording/streaming setup and we need some ideas/lessons learned from someone more experienced than I (I have video recording and streaming experience from my day job, but I have some specific questions regarding technologies/softwares that BayPiggies eventually settled on). If someone would be so kind as to contact me off-list (assuming this type of conversation shouldn't be spamming everyone), I'd really appreciate it.
