Ten Simple Rules for Reproducible Computational Research
Why becoming a data scientist is NOT actually easier than you think
You mean… there is actually work involved?!
Shocking.
This is a valuable article.
Tidy Data
A huge amount of effort is spent cleaning data to get it ready for data analysis,
but there has been little research on how to make data cleaning as easy and effective
as possible. This paper tackles a small, but important, subset of data cleaning: data
“tidying”.

Tidy Data is a must-read paper.
ENTERPRISE DATA MODELING
Last semester (Fall 2011) I taught “ENTERPRISE DATA MODELING” at Carroll University. Carroll is a great school and teaching the class was a lot of fun.
A mentor of mine shared that “A teacher’s job is to create an environment in which learning is likely to occur.”. Thank you for sharing that.
