Our TSS talk will start with a brief introduction to the Research Computing (RC) service offering, followed by examples of classes our group currently supports. RC has been supporting teaching for over 20 years by providing access to High Performance Computing (HPC) environments and professional/scientific licensed software, as well as large amounts of shared storage to entire classes. Innovative professors and postdocs offer their students unprecedented opportunities to take their problem solving skills to the next level and apply scientific methods to real-life datasets. Our examples will be followed by a brainstorming session how RC, in close collaboration with the Instructional Designers of the Educational Technology group, can help you (re)design your courses, inject technology, and support your teaching endeavors. Naturally, will be happy to discuss and answer your questions related to the following: * Teaching — scale computational tasks to real-world problem size for the entire class, use full datasets and professional software on our HPC environments * Software — get access to, licenses and support for, research software application as well as customs software development * Hardware — run compute intensive, large memory programs quickly and efficiently. Store and share your data securely on our network attached storage solution * Consulting — get advice and assistance from our applications specialist in HPC, GIS, statistics, humanities, sciences and more * Grant application — stringent your grant application by knowing all that Dartmouth has to offer in terms of HPC and research computing * Training — learn how to use research software and systems through our live training session and online classes For more information (dartgo.org/rcflyer<http://dartgo.org/rcflyer> and dartgo.org/rcbrochure<http://dartgo.org/rcbrochure>) Lunch will be provided at Noon, please register here: http://libcal.dartmouth.edu/event/2840052 See you at DCAL!
