Python Data Science Handbook

Python Data Science Handbook — learn to use Python libraries such as NumPy, Pandas, Matplotlib, Scikit-Learn, and related tools to effectively store, manipulate, and gain insight from data

I don't know what tools you will be using but if you will be using Python you can start with Python Data Science Handbook by Jake VanderPlas and Data Science & Big Data Analytics: Discovering, Analyzing, Visualizing and Presenting DataData Science & Big Data Analytics: Discovering, Analyzing, Visualizing and Presenting Data which gives a very good outlook on the data science and big data frame work. PS: Jake's book is also available as jupyter notebooks so you can read and run the code at the same time.

Otherwise you can work through courses on Datacamp, Coursera, Udemy, etc, or check out this book for a more general non-spatial perspective.

7. Data Science Handbook Are you looking for a comprehensive guide to data science with Python? Look no further than the Data Science Handbook by Jake VanderPlas. This repository contains the entire book, which introduces essential tools and techniques used in data science, including IPython, NumPy, Pandas, Matplotlib, and Scikit-Learn. It’s a fantastic resource for anyone looking to deepen their understanding of data science concepts and best practices.

Exercism

Nice, this reminds me of Exercism, which I wish was more widely known since they seem to be good folks. (disclaimer, I donate to them)

Exercism, the free programming learning platform has initiated a challenge named: 48in24.

Last year, Exercism put together the #12in23 challenge. The goal was to learn a new programming language each month throughout the year. I was one of 135 people who completed the challenge, and I learned a lot along the way!

The list of languages contains every language on Exercism, excluding ones that I've used before, web languages, or ones that I can't download for some reason.

Learning by doing, with the help of mentors. Excellent way to learn a next language (as you are already familiar with the programming concepts).

Exercism is pretty good for beginners with some programming language, they are open source and worth contributing to.

> it might be more sustainable if courses were stored in a version controllable medium to facilitate multiple collaborators

My initial thought was to actually use GitHub to store the content. Either on Markdown or JSON - to have some version control. I like how Exercism [1] does it. But I thought it would be hard for teachers - unfamiliar with Git - to update lessons.

Then, I thought about implementing a version control system for the project but I felt I was overcomplicating things for an MVP. But I like the idea of having some kind of version control to improve collaboration.
