Instructor Notes

This tutorial builds on the Setting Up Your EIC Environment tutorial: every episode assumes learners can already start eic-shell.

Before the session

---

• Ask learners to complete the Setup page in advance, in particular building a development copy of EICrecon, which can take a long time.
• Have learners generate or download a small simulated data file ahead of time so the live session is not spent waiting on ddsim or large downloads.

Timing

---

• Episodes 03 (end-user plugin) and 04 (JFactory) are the longest and most hands-on; budget the bulk of the session for them.
• Episodes 03 and 04 open with a note that parts of the material are somewhat outdated and some commands may not function. If learners only need to analyze already-reconstructed data, they can work directly from the output ROOT file instead of building a plugin.
