Editing HCDS (Fall 2017) (section)

=== Jupyter Hub ===
The course will use a [http://jupyter.org/ Jupyter Hub] provided by [http://westbigdatahub.org/ West Big Data Hub] and administered by [https://bids.berkeley.edu/people/yuvi-panda Yuvi Panda] at the Berkeley Institute for Data Science. Students use Jupyter notebooks for in-class and homework assignments that involve a combination of programming, analysis, documentation, and reflection. Allowing students to work in a shared, online environment reinforces best practices around open research such as transparency, iteration, and reproducibility. It also helps teaches them how to tell the story of their research using multiple media (code, data, prose, and visualizations), making it more accessible and impactful for a wider variety of audiences.
