In this workshop we wish to share experiences and best practices on the use of workshops and tutorials for the PRISM related software. In light of the currently changes due to the Covid-19 pandemic it is also interesting to ask how our training experiences are likely to change at a broader level including all forms of remote teaching. The format of the on-line workshop will involve a series of 4 short 10-minutes talks followed by small group discussions and a summary session. The programme includes presentations by: * 2.00pm-2.15pm TBC on Firedrake * 2.15pm-2.30pm Spencer Sherwin / David Moxey on Nektar ++ * 2.30pm-2.45pm Matt Piggott / Gerard Gorman on Jupiter notebook * 2.45pm-3pm Katerina Michalickova on Software Carpentry * 3pm-4pm Brainstorming sessions on establishing best practices. Please cascade this information through your local network.
