This semester’s workshop series features a line-up of incredible presenters to give you research and pedagogy inspiration using digital scholarship tools. Workshops will be held in two formats: in-person and online.
Back by popular demand, in-person workshops will be hands-on workshops held face-to-face in Woodruff Library 312 on the third floor of the Woodruff Library (across from the Jones Room and near the Schatten Gallery). These workshops will include overviews of software as well as hands-on exercises to practice using them and will be held on Tuesdays from 1-2:30pm.
Online workshops will be held on Wednesdays from 1-2pm via Zoom and will also be recorded and available afterward on our ECDS Workshops site for Emory students, faculty, and staff: https://scholarblogs.emory.edu/ecds-workshops/. You can also go back and watch over 35 previous workshops on topics like manipulating and visualizing data using popular tools like R, Python, and Tableau.
