We'd really like to know this for CPW as well. We've done two beginner
workshops so far, and we haven't gotten through all of the projects.
I've been thinking perhaps we'll get more done with practice.

If anyone has tips on specific areas to focus on while practice, that
would help. I'm also in "office hours" meetings a couple of times a
month, with 5 to 10 attendees, and I/we will be able to practice
continually rather than waiting until another big event.

I'm going to review the tutorial that Jessica just posted to make
observations for how things worked well.
