# Group project

This repository holds instructions for a one-day group project activity

intended to reinforce some of the concepts taught in Software Carpentry

lessons. We have developed this activity over three iterations of a three-day

training course based on the Software Carpentry syllabus and funded by NERC

via their ATSC scheme in 2014/15 and 2015/16. Our aim is to capture the

participant instructions and our experiances somewhere where others can benifit.

We break the class into groups of 4-6 people and set the group activity, which

is to:

> Find at least one data set relevant to your research

>

> Perform some relevant analysis on this data (which may involve combining it

> with data from another source). Visualise this data in an appropriate manner

> (graph, chart, map, etc.)

>

> Allow the user to interact with the visualisation in some way (eg. select 

> range of time series, temperatures, dates) to dynamically redraw visualisation

> 

> Ensuring that you:

>  * Make use of the principles we have learned over the past two days

>  * Document and prepare a short presentation for the end of day three

Participants often enjoy this actvity, but there are pitfalls that we have

attempted to document.
