Are you interested in leading an HTRC workshop at your own institution? Here are some tips to get you started.
Content
- Please reuse, adapt, or find inspiration in the content we have shared online.
- You can reference our how-to guides, educational materials, and publications and presentations, all linked to from the front page.
Choosing a date
- It is wise to check the20873358 to see what other public events are happening before you pick a date.
- Be cautious when holding a Tuesday workshop. The supercomputer we use is subject to routine maintenance the first Tuesday of every month, which means our services will be down.
Other logistics
- Some parts of the Portal will slow when there are many users or when particularly big or complicated jobs are run. We've had successful hands-on workshops with up to 30 users running small jobs, but be aware that if you anticipate a big group all submitting jobs at once, results may be slow to process. A good practice to streamline workshops is to create a small, sample workset (or find one publicly available in the Portal to use) and have your attendees use it in their job.
- If you plan to teach a workshop using the HTRC Data Capsule in your workshop, there are currently 15 virtual machines available. You may need to ask attendees to work in pairs or small groups.
- Please contact htrc-tech-help-l@list.indiana.edu with the workshop information, e.g. date and what part of HTRC you will present, such that we know about the event.
