BODY:
[Nothing new here for regular readers... This post implements
an idea that I saw on
Brian Marick's blog
and liked: a table of contents for a set of conference posts
coupled with cross-links as notes at the top of each entry.
I have done a table of contents before, for
OOPSLA 2005
-- though, sadly, not for 2004 or 2006 -- but I like the addition
of the link back from entries to the index. This may help
readers follow my entries, especially when they are out of order,
and it may help me when I occasionally want to link back to the
workshop as a unit.]
This set of entries records my experiences at the
SECANT 2007 workshop
November 17-18, hosted by the Purdue Department of Computer Science.
Primary entries:
-
Workshop Intro:
Teaching Science and Computing
-- on building a community
-
Workshop 1:
Creating a Dialogue Between Science and CS
-- How can we help scientists and CS folks work together?
-
Workshop 2:
Exception Gnomes, Garbage Collection Fairies, and Problems
-- on a hodgepodge of sessions around the intersection of
science ed and computing
-
Workshop 3:
The Next Generation
-- what scientists are doing out in the world and how computer
scientists are helping them
-
Workshop 4:
Programming Scientists
-- Should scientists learn to program? And, if so, how?
-
Workshop 5:
Wrap-Up
-- on how to cause change and disseminate results
Ancillary entries:
The next few items on the newsfeed will be these entries, updated
with the "transcript" cross-link. [Done]
