The following ideas, suggestions and points of concern have arisen from my involvement in short (1-5 days long) bioinformatics hands-on training events. But with the right modifications can be also applicable to other
types of training activities.

What teaching taught me 26
¨ Leave personal preferences/biases out of the classroom
¨ Inspire learners with your successes, but teach them also through your failures/mistakes
¨ Make time for project-specific questions ¤ Either through poster or Q&A sessions
¨ Enable continuation in teaching ¤ Emails exchange, create post-workshop forum, course
material distribution, online help, bioinformatics clinic

¤ For the learner: n Confidence n Common language in a multi-disciplinary field
¤ For the training community: n (Hopefully) New bioinformatic trainers

¨ Real-time assessment during the hands-on practicals ¤ Software carpentry post-it system on multiple-choice
questions ¤ Real-time collection of answers and instant plotting

FAQs
Questions
¨ Have people walked out of your training workshops before the end?
Answers
¨ Absolutely!! What is important is to identify the reason. Was the course poorly described? If yes, how can it be improved?
