Is this thing on? Getting your data ready for Analysis

This is a recording of a webinar, together with slides, for a presentation on Is this thing on? Getting your data ready for Analysis​ given on Wednesday, March 13th, 2024 as part of the Digital Scholarship Series for researchers at UCT.

Once your data is captured, it is time to start analysing it. No matter your research project, it helps to ensure that the data is ready to be wrangled, re-formatted, examined, queried, etc. In this session, we look at how you can ensure that your data is ready for the rigorous process of turning it into information.

The Digital Scholar Series is run out of Digital Library Services at UCT Libraries. It aims to showcase some of the digital practices and tools available to enhance research skills, with an ongoing focus on managing research data efficiently. Topics covered deal with the management of digital materials for research (what some of us call ‘data’) and touch on digital topics throughout the research lifecycle.
