  1. ; ; (, Pre-ICIS SIGDSA Symposium on Analytics and AI for a Sustainable and Resilient Future)
    The Nation's research enterprise faces a shortage of data scientists. Expanding the pipeline of data science students, particularly from underrepresented populations, requires educational institutions to increase awareness of data science and inspire a passion for data in students as they begin their academic careers. In this tutorial we discuss the development and delivery of a free seminar designed to provide hands-on lessons in the use of both Apache Spark and Jupyter notebooks to students from any academic background in an approachable, no-risk environment. An explanation of the seminar resources, exercises, and implementation guidelines are included, as are lessons learned from several successful seminars held both in-person and virtually at two institutions of high education.

  2. ; ; (, International Conference on Information Systems)
    The Python Foundations seminar emphasizes a hands-on approach and is designed to reach a diverse student population to provide them with the entry-level programming skills required in data science. The creation of the seminar materials has been funded by a three-year federal grant and has followed a systematic approach to enhance the student learning experience and raise student awareness of data science. The seminar materials—structured in three parts: pre-seminar, live seminar, and post-seminar—are licensed under the Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike 4.0 International license to encourage adoption by any institution. To foster interest in the seminar, students have the possibility to earn a digital badge attesting to their newly acquired skills.
