Date: 13th March 2018
We are pleased to invite you to join us with Rowan Cockett and Lindsey Heagy on Tuesday, March 13th at 8am PST (15:00 UTC) to learn about the scholarly commons through some of the work they have been doing in geoscience (Geosci.xyz).
This topic incorporates ideas about the creation and reuse of educational resources made from extensible, imported components and various approaches to peer review, testing, reproducibility, and collaboration that they have developed over time as the need arose, leveraging technologies such as Python, Sphinx, and Jupyter Notebooks. For a brief introduction to these ideas, you are encouraged to watch this presentation by Lindsey from SciPy 2016:
