Teaching

Open-Access Textbooks

For many students around the world, educational resources are hardly affordable. Therefore, I have decided that my recent books should remain independent, non-profit, open-access projects. Whilst, for some people, the presence of a “designer tag” from a major publisher might still be a proxy for quality, it is my hope that they will prove useful to those who seek knowledge for knowledge’s sake. Please spread the word about these projects. Thank you.

My featured books:

• Minimalist Data Wrangling with Python

• Deep R Programming

For more, see my other textbooks. Also, my CV includes a more complete, boring list of my teaching-related activities.

Current Teaching

I am currently a (senior) lecturer at Deakin University (Melbourne, Australia).

In 2023, I am responsible for the following subjects:

• SIT220/SIT731 Data Wrangling (see my open-access textbook) – Trimester 1 (autumn) and 3 (summer)

• SIG731 Data Wrangling (online; “Great Learning” India) – Trimester 3

Past

In the past, I created and taught many subjects related to programming, algorithms, computational statistics, and data analysis at Warsaw University of Technology (for 13 years). I wrote some textbooks in Polish related to them.

I’m particularly proud of the Golden Chalk of the second degree (Silver Chalk? 😆) that I was awarded in 2019. Thanks. 🥰

I was one of the principal initiators/designers of Poland’s first data science degree (both at undergraduate and postgraduate level).

I also taught very intensive and demanding (in a good way) R- and Python-for-data-analysis classes at Data Science Retreat in Berlin (for five years), amongst others.
