Preparation

Here is the current state of my sessions:

Time Topic State
10:00 Introduction .
10:10 Syllabus .
10:20 Load modules and run .
14:30 Simultaneous session .
16:00 Summary and evaluation .
  • [ ] Next course iteration: make ‘Load and run R’ point to documentation more

I want to make the course more useful and NAISS-wide, mostly pointing to documentation.

  • [ ] In the next course iteration: use more active learning methods in this session

  • [ ] In the simultaneous session, stay formal

  • [For next time] RB: suggest to make ‘Batch’ 15 minutes longer and remove a session, in the next course iteration

These are the learning outcomes for which I have 45 minutes:

  • find the module to be able to run R
  • load the module to be able to run R
  • run the R interpreter
  • run the R command to get the list of installed R packages
  • run an R script from the command-line

I will have to simplify things :-) .

Clusters used in the course (as taken from ‘The important info about the course’ document):

– COSMOS

  • Dardel
  • Kebnekaise
  • Rackham
  • Tetralith
