Research direction

Start by reading the existing tutorial materials, the Dask community issue 57, and the linked guide on running tutorials. Review feedback from the SciPy 2020 tutorial and determine how the materials should be restructured for different audiences. Done would mean agreeing on the regular xarray tutorial approach and preparing for the planned first session.

Description

discussion

The Dask team has been running regular, community, 90 minutes tutorials since June 2020, and these tutorials appear to have worked well (see https://github.com/dask/community/issues/57). @mrocklin and @jacobtomlinson put together a nice guide on how to run such tutorials: https://blog.dask.org/2020/08/21/running-tutorials.

I am interested in running similar, regular xarray online tutorials. @martindurant and @dcherian generously offered to help out. We are planning on having the first session on Friday October 2nd. As we start getting the content ready, I am wondering if folks who delivered the most recent tutorial at SciPy 2020 would be interested in sharing the feedback they received? We could use the feedback to re-structure the existing tutorial materials so as to cater to different audiences for different tutorial sessions.
