Studies is offering a one-day training workshop for postgraduate
students and researchers on structuring and visualising historical data.
The workshop will offer a basic introduction to issues around tabular
data, database design and linked open data, and tools for visualisation
for both presentational and analytical purposes. Participants will gain
hands-on experience of creating database tables (in Google
Spreadsheets), cleaning and enhancing their data, and building
visualisations based on it using a variety of free sites and tools. We
shall suggest and discuss how these methods can be applicable to your
research.
No previous digital experience is required, but participants should
bring their own laptop and have an account on Google Drive and be
prepared to download some free software in advance of the workshop. The
workshop will be taught by Silke Vanbeselaere (KU Leuven) and Gabriel
Bodard (ICS). This workshop has been made possible by the generous
support of the LAHP and AHRC.
Registration is free.
