330 <p>Programming is becoming increasingly important to scientific activity. |
|
331 As its importance grows, the need for better software tools becomes more |
|
332 and more central to scientific practice. However, many fields of science |
|
333 rely on badly written, poorly documented, and insufficiently tested |
|
334 codebases. Moreover, scientific software packages often implement only the |
|
335 approaches and algorithms needed or promoted by the specific lab where the |
|
336 software was written. |
|
337 |
|
338 In this talk, I will illustrate this situation by discussing some of the |
|
339 weaknesses of the software ecosystem for neuroimaging analysis circa 2004. |
|
340 I will then describe how several of my colleagues and I are attempting |
|
341 to rectify this situation with a project called Neuroimaging in Python |
|
342 (<a href="http://nipy.org">http://nipy.org</a>). Specifically, I will |
|
343 discuss the approach we've taken (e.g., using Python) and the lessons |
|
344 we've learned. |

335 from two years of running an introduction to computing course |

342 The course is designed as a general computing course for |

346 had any exposure to Python. Thus, the design of the course is |
386 </p> |
347 such that it allows everybody to be brought up to speed with |
387 <p> |
348 general programming concepts. Later, the students will later |

351 specialized techniques. At a second course in Scien- tific |
391 |
352 Computing numerical methods are introduced with the aid of |
392 |
353 Scipy. The introduction to computing course has been taught |
|
354 twice in Fall 2009 and 2010 to batches of around 100 students |
|
355 each. In this paper we report our experience with teaching |
|
356 Python and student and faculty feedback related to the course. |
