Upcoming Savvy Research Workshops Involving Introductions to R and Data Management
9/27/2015
Savvy Researcher workshops offer guidance in a variety of research areas. Upcoming workshops include:
Making Research Data Public: Why, What, and How (September 28)
Increasingly, funders and publishers are requiring researchers to publish and/or share research datasets. For many researchers and disciplines, there is a complicated set of issues to consider before publication or sharing data. This workshop will cover the basics of research data publication. Participants will come away with a framework to help them make decisions about when and how to publish or share data. This is the last session in series of workshops focused on data management.
A Brief Introduction to R (September 29)
R is powerful, free and extensible statistical software that has become an increasingly important tool for researchers and students engaging in data analysis. In this workshop, we’ll demonstrate how to get up and running with R using RStudio and explore using R’s built-in functions for solving basic statistical problems.
Introduction to Data Management (October 1)
This workshop introduces the elements of robust data management, including planning, organization, documentation, storage, and archiving. Attendees will identify gaps in their current data management practices and learn what steps they can take to address those gaps. This is the first of three sessions in a series of workshops focused on data management.
