Towards DataDojo 2.0
In the CCTB general assembly in April 2025, we decided to make some changes to the DataDojo to make it more valuable and fun. This is what we’ll try first:
- everyone reads the two-page Points of Significance paper Importance of being uncertain before the event
- on May 7 we meet at 11 in the large seminar room (regular seminar time) and discuss the content of the paper for roughly 15 minutes
- then we split into pairs - each pair works together on one machine to reproduce one of the figures (probably Fig. 2) for roughly 60 minutes - I will provide the required data
- then we meet again and every pair shares their result and lessons learned. This takes another 15 minutes
So, as before, it will be hands-on and 90 minutes, so feel free to bring your lunch. But it will be more focused and with smaller groups.
