Whiteboard Solutions for the Digital Classroom (https://gconline.commons.gc.cuny.edu/support/workshops/workshop-whiteboard-solutions-for-the-digital-classroom-march-15th-2-3-pm/)
March 15th (2:00-3:00 pm)
CETF workshop with Jason Block and John Zayac
Description: We will discuss many different methods for doing what would normally be done on a classroom chalkboard. We will describe in detail the best way to carry out each method, as well as both necessary and optional software/hardware needed for each method. The methods discussed will range from low tech (filming yourself at a physical whiteboard, filming a piece of paper as you write on it, using a zoom/blackboard digital white board) to higher tech (using collaborative digital whiteboards, using an infinite space whiteboard, using a wacom).

Choosing the Right Platform for Your Digital Archive (https://gcdi.commons.gc.cuny.edu/event/intro-to-creating-digital-archives-2/)
March 17 @ 11:30 am – 1:00 pm
GCDI workshop with Stefano Morello and Filipa Calado
This workshop is designed for students, faculty, and staff at all levels interested in creating a digital archive as part of their research projects or for use in the classroom. A brief discussion on some of the theoretical underpinnings of digital archival work will be followed by an overview of a range of tools and platforms (including WordPress, Omeka, Tropy, Drupal, Jekyll, and Collective Access). Together, we will go over a number of questions and examples that will help you choose a platform that best fits your needs and those of your projects.

R (Text Mining or Predictive Modeling) (https://gcdi.commons.gc.cuny.edu/event/r-text-mining-or-predictive-modeling/)
March 19 @ 3:00 pm – 5:00 pm
GCDI workshop Yuxiao Luo and Connor French
This workshop will introduce a workflow of predictive modeling using R. We will introduce machine learning at a concept and coding level without touching the math, and will cover both supervised learning and unsupervised learning at a basic level. After taking this workshop, you will be able to apply the machine learning framework to any dataset for predictive tasks. Basic R programming skill is required (You can test yourself by reading the DRI 2021 Intro to R Workshop Materials (https://github.com/GC-DRI/R)).
