Workshop Strengths

  select(workshop, workshop_strengths.post) %>% 
  drop_na()
workshop workshop_strengths.post
2022-05-26-ucsb-twarc The instructors were very knowledgeable and enthusiastic. I liked how the teaching team set up the workshop with a Jupyter Notebook instance for everyone to use and I think the teaching materials were very well organized.
2022-05-26-ucsb-twarc Very very very helpful!

Ways to improve the workshop

Code
results %>% 
  group_by(workshop) %>% 
  select(workshop, workshop_improved.post) %>% 
  drop_na()
workshop workshop_improved.post
2022-05-26-ucsb-twarc I think the pace could have been slower so that more time could have been spent on why we’re doing what we’re doing and the logic behind certain commands and ways of collecting and interacting with the data versus just learning how to do certain tasks.
2022-05-26-ucsb-twarc more days! thanks!
