π£οΈ Session Overview
Todayβs session is entirely guided by your questions and needs. There is no fixed lecture or set of slides. Instead, we will:
- Work through the stages of the data science workflow, as relevant to your midterm and current projects
- Address specific coding challenges (e.g.,
groupby, plotting, refactoring) - Demonstrate solutions live, using a flexible notebook scaffold
- Share best practices and reputable resources for independent learning
If you have a question or are stuck, raise it. This is your time to get help!
