Kommentar
In the age of digital archaeology, proper management of data and their manipulation (collecting, storing, analysing, sharing and archiving) is a key skill. Too often, we are not sure how we used data to find answers. What about the results you obtained a year ago or those that you used when you collaborated with other persons?
The replication of scientific findings is a standard by which scientific claims are evaluated. In the fields of science that cannot be replicated, there is a need for minimum standards to assert the conformity between data and results. In the realm of digital data, one candidate for this minimum standard is “reproducible research”, which requires that data sets and computer code be made available to others for verifying published results and conducting alternative analyses.
In this course you will learn the ideas of reproducible research. Topics covered include managing data and literate programming for data analyses. You will learn to write dynamic documents using R and related tools, to publish documents to the web and to collaborate with others to produce data analysis. We make use of a wide range Free Source software (R, Git, pandoc) and the course is taught using a combination of lectures, practical sessions and tutorials realised on your own laptop.
? Requirement : No programming experience is necessary, but it will be expected to work in small teams to complete programming assignments. Students must bring their own computer (laptop) to each class.
