Abstract:
Jupyter Notebooks can be a great tool for teaching and learning in a corporate setting. In this talk I’ll cover three ways I’ve incorporated Jupyter Notebooks into my daily routine:

(1) Using notebooks as templates with information, questions and examples for training new team members.
(2) Collecting notebooks to share code for infrequent requests across our team.
(3) Using notebooks to try new techniques, play with new packages, and quickly test new code.
