SUMMARY:Best Practices for Managing Data in your Research (Winter)
DESCRIPTION:TIFU (Today I F’ed Up) by losing a ton of data for my research – Have you ever seen a description like this on Reddit? Are your desktop and downloads folders a jumble of files named Data-finalFINAL-USETHISONE? Is all of your lab’s data stored on a single drive located conveniently under a sprinkler system? Join research data management services and learn how investing a small amount of time in organizing your data now can save you a lot of time and prevent future headaches. In this introductory workshop\, learn about research data management best practices. We will go over best practices for data planning\, storage\, organization\, preservation\, and sharing. \n\n\n\nNo prior experience with data management is required! This session is perfect for anyone who wants to feel more confident organizing\, storing\, and sharing their data in clear and practical ways. \n\n\n\nBy the end of this session\, participants will be able to: \n\n\n\n\nProduce a plan for their data\n\n\n\nOrganize and document their data consistently\n\n\n\nStore and back-up their data securely\,\n\n\n\nSelect an appropriate data repository for archival and sharing.\n\n\n\n\nDetails: Any preparatory work for the session can be found on its information page. This virtual workshop will be recorded and shared on the same page\, and discoverable via the Sherman Centre’s Online Learning Catalogue. \n\n\n\nCertificate Eligibility: This workshop is eligible for the Sherman Centre’s certificate program.

SUMMARY:Finding\, Accessing\, and Adding GIS Data to Your Project
DESCRIPTION:Looking for data to support your digital mapping project? Geospatial data contains location-based information that can be analyzed and visualized using Geographic Information Systems (GIS). Working with spatial data can help researchers uncover patterns\, explore relationships\, communicate insights effectively\, and support evidence-based decision-making. \n\n\n\nIn this workshop\, participants will be introduced to common geospatial data formats and strategies for finding\, accessing\, and assessing spatial datasets from reliable sources. Whether you are new to GIS or preparing to build a digital mapping project\, this session will provide a practical foundation for working with location-based data. \n\n\n\nThis session is ideal for beginners\, researchers\, and anyone interested in incorporating spatial data into their work. No prior GIS experience is required. \n\n\n\nBy the end of this session\, participants will be able to: \n\n\n\n\nDifferentiate between common geospatial data models.\n\n\n\nLocate datasets using widely used geospatial data repositories and sources.\n\n\n\nEvaluate the suitability and quality of geospatial datasets for specific projects and research needs.\n\n\n\n\nDetails: Any preparatory work for the session can be found on its information page. This virtual workshop not be recorded. \n\n\n\nInstructor: Christine Homuth

SUMMARY:Introduction to Bibliometric Analysis
DESCRIPTION:Bibliometric analysis is a powerful research method that uses publication and citation data to examine the impact\, structure\, and evolution of scholarly literature. This introductory workshop provides a practical foundation in bibliometric analysis\, covering the key concepts\, methodologies\, and tools used to assess research performance and explore trends within academic disciplines. Participants will learn how to collect and analyze publication data\, identify influential authors and publications\, and visualize research collaborations and emerging areas of scholarship. The workshop will also introduce major bibliographic databases and software tools commonly used in bibliometric research. \n\n\n\nThis session is ideal for researchers\, graduate students\, librarians\, research administrators\, and anyone interested in research evaluation\, scholarly communication\, and understanding patterns within academic literature. \n\n\n\nBy the end of this session\, participants will be able to: \n\n\n\n\nUnderstand the principles and applications of bibliometric analysis.\n\n\n\nIdentify and interpret common bibliometric indicators used in research evaluation.\n\n\n\nCollect publication and citation data from major bibliographic databases.\n\n\n\nPerform basic bibliometric analyses and interpret the results.\n\n\n\nExplore scholarly networks\, research collaborations\, and emerging research topics using bibliometric tools and visualizations.\n\n\n\n\nDetails: Any preparatory work for the session can be found on its information page. This virtual workshop will be recorded and shared on the same page\, and discoverable via the Sherman Centre’s Online Learning Catalogue. \n\n\n\nCertificate Eligibility: This workshop is eligible for the Sherman Centre’s certificate program.
