The ‘goterps’ R package is specially designed for students and faculty at the University of Maryland, offering downloadable templates for creating presentations with the university logo and applying the university theme in ggplot2 visualizations. This workshop will provide comprehensive guidance on navigating the package in R, detailing the various functionalities available and demonstrating how to effectively utilize these resources in academic presentations. You can find more information about the package here
During the workshop, we covered key topics such as the connection with the WebDriver, HTML sintaxis, CSS sintaxis, main functions of Rvest and RSelenium to scrape data, and how to collect that data into a data.frame.
In collaboration with @ramaol , I conducted a 3-hour free workshop on basic R programming skills at @EANT . The workshop was designed to provide participants with a solid foundation in R programming language and its application in data analysis.
During the workshop, we covered key topics such as functions, objects, importing data, data visualization, and basic regression analysis in R. Our teaching style was interactive and hands-on, with plenty of opportunities for participants to practice and apply what they learned. Join us for the course and let your comments!
I had the pleasure of collaborating with the incredible team at R Ladies Buenos Aires to present a 2-hour workshop on Social Network Analysis with R. During the workshop, we explored how to prepare data for social network analysis using the igraph package. Participants learned how to create a network, customize data, and obtain basic metrics from the network.
We also demonstrated how to use the ‘politicxsentwitteR’ package to download Twitter data and combine it with igraph to perform network analysis on social media data.
