Hippo e2a35462bc Convert to basic DatPro site (images yet to be replaced!)
Changed most of the site and content to reflect that of the
Blogging With Data course instead of the Snipette Writers'
Programme. Images are yet to be inserted, and there is of course
always fine tuning to be done, but otherwise this seems more or
less workable!

<p>The course will make use of Python-based data analysis software, which we will help you familiarise yourself with. Towards this, we will be screening participants with a quick questionnaire.</p>

<h1 class="text-3xl text-center my-4 font-heading font-extrabold">How it works</h1>
<p class="text-lg">This course is based on our experience in private informal sessions and the <a href="https://write.snipettemag.com" class="text-blue-900 underline">Snipette Writers' Programme</a>. We understand that no two peoples' ideas or problems or finished products will be identical; hence a lot of how the course works depends on your personal needs. However, here's what will remain constant:</p>
<ul class="m-4 text-lg">

<div class="w-0 h-full border border-blue-700 mx-auto"></div>
</div>
<div class="w-1/2 pl-4 flex items-center">
<p>Your workplace will begin as a Google Docs sheet. This is where you will be brainstorming ideas and figuring out what area you want to research. In the meantime, you will also be in touch with the team over email.</p>

When all is done, you will be ready for publication! This happens in two components:
</p>
<ul class="m-4 text-lg flex">
<li class="p-4">
A more technical overview of your work, along with graphs, stats, and links to raw data. This is aimed at being shared with the data science community, through the <a href="https://medium.com/emergent-phenomena" target="_blank">Emergent Phenomena</a> Medium publication. Emergent Phenomenan is a space for innovative work at the interface of data, storytelling, and society, filling a much-needed niche for in-depth analyses on societal issues backed by data.
</li>
<li class="p-4">
A more general-purpose article which gives a general overview of your chosen topic and provides context for where your work fits in. This is aimed at spreading awareness of the topic and your findings to the general public. You will use literary techniques like suspense and metaphor to get your point across, and the final article will be published in <a href="https://www.snipettemag.com" target="_blank">Snipette</a>—a magazine seeking to explain the world in a fun and accessible way.
</li>
</ul>
</li>
</ul>
<p class="text-lg">Once both versions of your article are published, you will receive a certificate of completion from Snipette/Emergent Phenomena and a print copy of the edition in which your article appears. The whole process is expected to take 6-8 weeks. Given that the course is wholly unique and tailored specifically to each participant, timings may vary from person to person.</p>
