Intro to Data Science Workshop
This hands-on workshop aims to help participants expand their programming skills, learn language-agnostic data science semantics, and understand how to best incorporate AI co-pilots into their computational workflows. All are welcome, but we assume participants have a modest programming background in a language such as R or Matlab or have written macros in Google Sheets or Microsoft Excel. The workshop will give participants experience writing code using the Python programming language and applying a Python package called “pandas” to real-world data. Participants will program in an web-browser-based development environment called Google Colaboratory which has a built-in AI-model, Google’s Gemini. Using AI models and the web, participants will “learn how to learn” programming and data science so they can continue to expand their skills after the workshop concludes.

Zines for Change-Workshop
Join ORCA POD Peer Prevention Educators--Learn to create your own zines, small booklets between 8 and 32 pages long often illustrated with imagery and poetry, etc. Dating back to the 19th century, these charming folded-paper books, called chapbooks were inspired by popular culture and were perfect for mixing visual art and written texts. In the 1970's the zine was coopted by the young punk movement as a way to disseminate information on various punk bands and other information including poetry and photocopy imagery. In this workshop, we will write from prompts and exercises to produce fragments of poetry and prose then blend with stamping, drawing, painting, and collage techniques to make our own individual zines sewn by machine, hand or stapled. Join us to think big in a small way.

Zines for Change Workshop
Join ORCA POD Peer Prevention Educators for this Zine Workshop. Learn to create your own zines, small booklets between 8 and 32 pages long often illustrated with imagery and poetry, etc. Dating back to the 19th century, these charming folded-paper books, called chapbooks were inspired by popular culture and were perfect for mixing visual art and written texts. In the 1970's the zine was coopted by the young punk movement as a way to disseminate information on various punk bands and other information including poetry and photocopy imagery. In this workshop, we will write from prompts and exercises to produce fragments of poetry and prose then blend with stamping, drawing, painting, and collage techniques to make our own individual zines sewn by machine, hand or stapled. Join us to think big in a small way.
