This book provides instructions on how to set these up in the cloud using the [AnVIL platform](https://anvil.terra.bio/), so that your students will not need to install anything.

## Teaching on AnVIL
## Teaching on AnVIL {-}

The AnVIL (Analysis Visualization and Informatics Lab-space) platform is a cloud computing platform specially designed for analyzing biological data, and is used by scientists doing all sorts of biological research.

AnVIl can be an excellent way to introduce students to biological data analysis and cloud computing. Because all computation on AnVIL is done in the cloud, all students can use the exact same computing environment through their browsers, with no need for software installation or access to expensive computers.

If this is your first time using AnVIL (or first time using it for a course), the [AnVIL Instructor Guide](https://jhudatascience.org/AnVIL_Book_Instructor_Guide) provides a walkthrough of how to set up and teach a course or workshop on AnVIL.

Details about each of these steps can be found in the [AnVIL Instructor Guide](https://jhudatascience.org/AnVIL_Book_Instructor_Guide). *Note that this checklist is written for workshop instructors as well as classroom instructors, so some of the "Event Setup" steps may not be applicable to you, depending on your teaching context.*

- Start working through RUNNING THE CLASS
- If possible, have students log in to AnVIL and send you their usernames, so you can add them to the Student Group ahead of time. This saves time on the day of the class.
