Data Carpentry: Spreadsheets, OpenRefine and R
Data Carpentry: Spreadsheets, OpenRefine and R
Data Carpentry aims to help researchers learn data cleaning, management, analysis, and visualization using spreadsheets (i.e. Excel), OpenRefine, and R/RStudio by practicing real-life workflows. Learners are expected to attend the full two days.
We'll use ecology data from the Portal Project Teaching Database but the principles and tools are applicable across disciplines. See https://datacarpentry.org/
The workshop is open to anyone. You do not need any programming experience to participate but you will need access to a Windows, Mac or Linux computer. Instructions for accessing course material and installing software will be sent in advance. For questions, contact Data Education Coordinator Nathaniel Porter (ndporter@vt.edu).
If you are an individual with a disability and desire an accommodation, welcome! Please email library-event-accessibility-g@vt.edu at least 10 days prior to the event.
