This workshop was taught by myself and my friend and colleague
Sophie Harbisher.
This workshop was taught for Newcastle University’s postgraduate researcher
development programme. In this workshop we taught the basics of using Git and
GitHub. Amongst other things, students were taught how to initialise a
repository, commit changes, and push and pull from a remote repository.
Teaching
- Introduction to git and GitHub
- Preparing a thesis with LaTeX
I wrote and taught this workshop for Newcastle University’s postgraduate
researcher development programme. The workshop was aimed at students who were
already familiar with the LaTeX typesetting system, ideally having already
used LaTeX to produce a publication or Master’s thesis. The intention of this
workshop was to give students a deeper understanding of LaTeX and to prepare
them for using LaTeX to produce their PhD thesis.
