So you want to be a researcher? Principles and practical data tools to help you fly transparently

October 7, 2016 @ 12:00 pm - 2:00 pm PDT

Instructor: Michael Tzen

PLEASE BRING A PERSONAL LAPTOP

Content: Researchers go through fundamental steps in a data analysis project. This workshop highlights key steps in a data analyst’s workflow and encourages transparency in each of the steps. Throughout this workshop, we go through hands on exercises that integrate: a transparency engine, obtaining federal API data, producing useful intermediate data structures, and sharing analysis results. We will use Jupyter notebook for literate coding and if time allows demonstrate the Rstudio environment for reproducible development.
