Categories:
Digital Scholarship   Workshop  
Registration has closed.

Join Kristy Golubiewski-Davis to explore how sentiment analysis can be applied to board game reviews.  In this workshop, she will walk you through her process of determining a research question, collecting data, using R to apply sentiment analysis, and preliminary interpretations.  This workflow is based on a larger research project, but will focus on working through the methodology with a single board game so that participants can see the process from start to finish.

The workshop will be presented as a Zoom lecture (link) with an open discussion at the end.  The software that will be used includes:  Octoparse, R, and R Studio.  A list of R packages used in the workshop will be made available here before the workshop.  It is not necessary to have the software downloaded in advance - these are provided for your reference.  The workshop will be presented in a method walkthrough format.  While we are unable to provide personalized help during the workshop, we are available for individual consultations after the workshop if you want to integrate these methods into your own work.

This Zoom session will be recorded and may be made public at a later date. You can communicate your questions via chat if you do not wish to be part of the recording, and there will be a brief Q&A period at the end that will not be recorded.

You will be asked to complete a short registration when you log in to the session. This information helps us better tailor future events.
