The workshops will help to train researchers how to use these tools. Longitudinal analyses involving interviews and data tracing, will be conducted to identify roadblocks and assay tool usefulness. You will also conduct surveys to collect data about the researchers' attitudes towards open science and their perception of the benefits/risks of using Github and Jupyter. You will perform the mixed-methods analysis and assist the team in manuscript and report preparation.
