New course: Test driven development for data scientists
Why? Because many folks in data science have not been exposed to good product development practices (XP + BDD). The 1st iteration is done (trialed on a small class with 4 people). Feedback is good, but day 2 needs some improvements (API testing, mocking). Add material from Allen Downey books and courses.
Establishing weekly routine
- Weekly plan using spreadsheet. Monday morning: make a plan for upcoming week. Friday afternoon: review the week.
- Start “self-reflection journal” using We are not really strangers cards (1 hour, 1/week).
