Slides for the mini workshop on Kaggle

In preparation for the WiDS Datathon(https://www.widsconference.org/datathon.html) our group will be offering a mini workshop and sessions to host teams to provide a space to work, collaborate and get some help from different mentors to successfully cross the finish line! Please register for the competition from the WiDS website (https://airtable.com/shrOhHp8VKWkn9f9J).

In this second session we'll explain how Kaggle notebooks work as well as giving some useful tips and tricks for using these tools. You can ask all yours questions for the use of these technologies and be prepared to start the kaggle competition.

This mini workshop aims to bring less experienced data scientist up to speed with the technologies they will likely use for the Datathon.

After the workshop, we will have time to get to know each other and form teams for the competition.

Snacks will be provided!
