CIRSS Seminar: Software Carpentry - Lessons Learned

Greg Wilson, cofounder of Software Carpentry, will speak at this CIRSS Seminar.

Since its start in 1998, Software Carpentry has evolved from a week-long training course at the US national laboratories into a worldwide volunteer effort to improve researchers' computing skills. This talk will explore the lessons we've learned along the way about applying open source software development techniques to teaching at scale, and about getting people and institutions to change the way they work.

This event is sponsored by Center for Informatics Research in Science and Scholarship
