Incorporating GitHub's own teaching resources into our courses

[geoffbacon]

We've got some great resources that we use for teaching how to use Git and GitHub, some that we've created ourselves and some that are maintained by e.g. Software Carpentry. GitHub itself maintains its own resources for people learning to use GitHub and to a lesser extend Git. For example, their learning paths, their introduction to GitHub bot that takes students step-by-step through various tasks like creating a PR, and more. It makes me wonder how we could benefit from their hard work creating these polished resources by incorporating them in our teaching. More broadly, it makes me wonder what our teaching would look like if we flipped the classroom. For example, students could work through a selected set of resources before a workshop and then during the workshop we could handle questions, review key examples, etc. What are people's thoughts?
