During the NEON Data Institute, you will share the code that you create daily
with everyone on the NEONScience/DI-NEON-participants repo.
Through this week’s tutorials, you have learned the basic skills needed to
successfully share your work at the Institute including how to:
Create your own GitHub user account,
Set up Git on your computer (please do this on the computer you will be
bringing to the Institute), and
Create a Markdown file with a biography of yourself and the project you are
interested in working on at the Institute. This biography was shared with the
group via the Data Institute’s GitHub repo.
Checklist for this week’s Assignment:
You should have completed the following after Pre-institute week 2:
Fork & clone the NEON-DataSkills/DI-NEON-participants repo.
Create a .md file in the participants/2018-RemoteSensing/pre-institute2-git directory of the
repo. Name the document LastName-FirstName.md.
Write a biography that introduces yourself to the other participants. Please
provide basic information including:
name,
domain of interest,
one goal for the course,
an updated version of your Capstone Project idea,
and the list of data (NEON or other) to support the project that you created
during last week’s materials.
Push the document from your local computer to your GithHub repo.
Created a Pull Request to merge this document back into the
NEON-DataSkills/DI-NEON-participants repo.
NOTE: The Data Institute repository is a public repository, so all members of
the Institute, as well as anyone in the general public who stumbles on the repo,
can see the information. If you prefer not to share this information publicly,
please submit the same document but use a pseudonym (cartoon character names
would work well) and email us with the pseudonym so that we can connect the
submitted document to you.
Have questions? No problem. Leave your question in the comment box below.
It's likely some of your colleagues have the same question, too! And also
likely someone else knows the answer.
