Collaborate with Github Workshop for Experiental Learning Passport

Join the InspirEd Lab team members for an introduction to Git and GitHub, where you will learn GitHub best practices to collaborate.

Use GitHub to Collaborate:

The GitHub platform is an incredibly powerful collaboration tool. Anyone can collaborate on projects using GitHub! In this workshop, participants will create an account, become familiar with the GitHub platform, and use a best practice collaboration workflow to add their hometown to a map of all Localhost participants!
