A very needed new resource is published, teaching computational thinking in libraries and ethical considerations. Well done to everyone involved.

The Library Carpentry Curriculum Advisory Committee approved a new lesson, Introducing Computational Thinking, designed by Belinda Weaver to teach learners how to break problems down into computable steps before starting to code. Learn more about the lesson, as well as how you can get involved in supporting its reach and maintenance: https://lnkd.in/dGw-hWzU

We are pleased to introduce to you a cohort of 22 newly certified Carpentries Instructor Trainers! This is the largest cohort ever to join the Instructor Trainer community, joining us from Australia, Canada, Germany, Italy, Japan, Mexico, the Netherlands, South Africa, the United Kingdom, and the United States. Instructor Trainers co-teach Instructor Training events, host teaching demonstrations, and participate in oversight and maintenance of our Instructor Training program as a whole.

Next week we are kicking off a year-long seminar and workshop series we're calling Open Energy Data For All, aimed at helping early-career energy systems researchers get more familiar with the tools and techniques of data management and software engineering. The first event will be an introduction to the US open energy data landscape, on October 30th from 4:30-5:30PM eastern time. You can register here: https://lnkd.in/dsuVXYca Many thanks to the Alfred P. Sloan Foundation for supporting this work, and The Carpentries for working with us on curriculum development.

In our latest blog post, Angelique Trusler, PhD extends our heartfelt thanks to everyone who contributed in the Glosario Codefest, an event that highlighted the importance of breaking down language barriers in data science and programming. Your contributions to #Glosario, our open source glossary of #datascience terms, have helped create a more inclusive learning environment, advancing our vision of #accessibility for the global community. Read up on all that we have achieved with support from a grant by the Andrew W. Mellon Foundation to develop our inclusive resource of data science terms: https://lnkd.in/gV5AhCfH
