2022 SIParCS Brainstorming

[kmpaul]

The 2022 SIParCS internships will be starting soon! We have a proposed project description below:

Project Pythia (https://projectpythia.org/) provides a public, web-accessible training resource to help educate current and aspiring earth scientists to more effectively use both the Scientific Python Ecosystem and Cloud Computing to make sense of large volumes of numerical scientific data. We are looking for help developing, curating, and testing our content. This involves finding external learning resources to add to the Pythia Resource Gallery (https://projectpythia.org/gallery.html), working through our resources on the Pythia Foundations Book (https://foundations.projectpythia.org/) while documenting your learning experience, and writing more documentation on various Python tools, packages, and techniques to add to the Pythia Foundations Book. If the student is interested, work can be expanded to include outreach efforts to help grow our audience, help with tutorial workshops or other events, and potentially some web development.

In terms of specific things for the intern to work on, what ideas do you have?
