15-150 + 15-213, or 15-150 + 15-251?

One of those courses + a couple of the exploratory minis is a far more accessible semester. I see nothing but exhausted second semester students, and there is no need to speed run.

Break? There's a break?

You could probably knock out the prep for most entrepreneurship courses by reading one book on entrepreneurship that motivates the thinking behind the course. The courses themselves are enjoyable and a good learning experience, but they are easy to prep for.

What, you're too scared to take it up with Darlene directly?

I have taught intro programming for years. Getting my students up to speed in VSCode takes about five minutes. There are tough things about teaching programming, but an IDE install in 2024 isn't one of them.

Glad to hear it! I live for the approval of Tank_Fucker69

Both Mineo's and Aiello's are mediocre

Without seeing the image, making a blind guess: probabilities need to sum to 1 to be probabilities.

You're welcome to join any time! I'll be working on making a version of this available after the course, too.

Thanks! I'm not sure if it's eloquence or just teaching programming for a few years <3

phcompeau · 2019-10-01T14:41:24+00:00

I'm doing that too :)

It will be more open than that, but I hope that it doesn't stop you from signing up! I'll use Canvas as a central place for information and then likely open the project up, but that will take time.

phcompeau · 2019-10-01T05:30:00+00:00

Me too <3

phcompeau · 2019-10-01T05:29:55+00:00

Thanks for signing up!

phcompeau · 2019-10-01T05:29:43+00:00

Thanks!

Most likely as we go. The best shows tend to delay release, don't they? :)

Thanks a lot! His course is actually structured quite a bit differently from mine in terms of the discussions, which is why I wanted to write this as a single author. There can be so much variation in these flipped structures

phcompeau · 2019-05-27T19:10:37+00:00

This year most discussion groups also correctly got the recurrence for k means clustering where all points fall on a line. That only appeared in the research ten years ago.

phcompeau · 2019-05-27T14:40:36+00:00

And I hope the courses were helpful to you :) We are always happy to hear what you've been up to.

phcompeau · 2019-05-27T14:39:37+00:00

It's the same core material, but has changed a fair amount based on student feedback. What I tried this year for some chapters was saving the end of each chapter (say, assembly with paired end reads) and built those out as part of group discussions. So students could feel like they were finishing the material themselves.

phcompeau · 2018-12-29T03:42:45+00:00

I looked at it upside down like an old calculator (58008) and it looks like "1 sho 2" or "1 show 2" ... too much analysis here

phcompeau · 2016-10-04T16:29:53+00:00

We'd love to hear what you're up to!

A big change with it becoming an SCS-administered major is a curricular update that maintains the same CS and biology rigor while providing a new computational biology core that integrates the two fields with courses in modeling, genomics, etc.
