UC Love Data Week
February 14-18, 2022
UC Love Data Week is a week-long offering of presentations and workshops focused on data access, management, security, sharing, and preservation. For more information and to register for a specific workshop, please visit the website: https://uc-love-data-week.github.io/
This peer-led series of workshops is designed by undergraduates in collaboration with the Library Data Services Program to help undergraduates learn python basics for data analysis and visualization. Developed from the Software Carpentry Curriculum, undergraduate Data Peers will lead workshops to introduce basic data manipulation and visualization with Python. Each workshop is designed to act as a starting point for learning concepts and will familiarize attendees with additional resources for getting help. Unless you are already familiar with Python, these workshops are best taken as a successive series.
This series of workshops is designed to help graduate and undergraduate students work with qualitative and textual data. Sessions include cleaning and coding qualitative data in MaxQDA and the open-source Taguette program, organizing and writing up research projects in Scrivener, and archiving qualitative data once a project has been completed. Each workshop is designed to act as a starting point for learning concepts and will familiarize attendees with additional resources for getting help.
