Cette journée vise à l’initiation à cet outil digital pour tout chercheur, sur base d’exercices pratiques. Certaines fonctionnalités plus avancées de nodegoat seront abordées en fin de journée (voir programme ci-dessous). Les participants possédant déjà une base de données ou ayant un projet de base de données sont vivement invités à présenter leurs recherches au cours de la rencontre « Données et réseaux ; genre et sciences» qui aura lieu la veille , afin de pouvoir faire des exercices à partir de leurs données et de leurs projets. Veuillez noter que la langue de la formation est l’anglais.

- 09.30 Welcome
- 09.45 Databases in the humanities: challenges and opportunities
- 10.30 Learn how to enter data into nodegoat.
Hands on tutorial on how to enter data into a data model in nodegoat.
- 11.15 Learn how to build a data model in nodegoat (individual/groups)
Hands on tutorial on how to create a data model in nodegoat. Next, participants may form groups or
work individually to create a project in nodegoat, based on the data model they have conceptualised.

Presentation
The lab SPHère organises a one-day workshop on the use of nodegoat. Nodegoat is a web-based data management, network analysis & visualisation environment. It is particularly suitable for research in the humanities and especially historical research. Nodegoat is developped by Pim van Bree and Geert Kessels (LAB 1100), who will teach during the workshop.
This workshop will allow participants to learn how to use nodegoat through hands-on exercises. The end of the afternoon will be devoted to specific and advanced features of nodegoat (see program below). All participants who already have a database or a project which requires the development of a database are strongly invited to present their research the day before, during the ‘Rencontre « Données et réseaux ; genre et sciences»’ (16/01/2017). This will allow for exercises based on the participants’ own data and projects. Please note that the workshop will be taught in English.
