2  Schedule

The course is structured as a series of participatory live-coding sessions (instructor and learner coding together) interspersed with hands-on exercises, all with using a real-world, open dataset. There are few lectures, only given at the start and end of the workshop. The general schedule outline is shown in the below table. This is not a fixed schedule of the timings of each session — some may be shorter and others may be longer. Instead, it is meant to be an approximate guide and overview.
