Computer Setup & Software Installation

This course will have about a 50/50 mix of conceptual background and hands-on practice with the tools we'll teach– this means you’ll need to be able to download and install software onto your computer (either your personal computer, or a computer you have access to). Click here for more information about setting up your computer and the kinds of software we’ll be using. (Let us know if this will present a challenge, e.g. if you’re using a chromebook or a very old computer, or don’t have access to a personal computer– we may be able to help 😄)
