Hey guys. I've run this 3 times now & my general comments are:

  • The revision section (Q3 at the start) just looking at the files takes most of the session (about 90 mins)
  • The biomart file isn't clear with the columns. Most of them are struggling to identify them as they wrap around lines. We should cut most of these out. The most common question is "How do you know which column has the gene names?" It's totally obvious to us, but not to newbies.
  • The "thought exercises" confuse the heck out of people
  • We don't need to know about emacs & ne
  • No-one made it to awk in any session

I do understand that we need to show people how difficult tasks are, but this session ended up demoralising most people as it probably just went to far too quickly (even considering it was revision)
