SUMMARY:WORKSHOP: Database Design: the Practicalities
DESCRIPTION:Location TBC \nThis hands-on workshop will introduce practical database design principles and help participants transform research information into a clear\, structured database. Led by IDRC DH co-director Dr Alan Guedes\, with help from Computer Science students\, staff can learn more about database design at the University of Reading. \n\nUsing an ICT suite\, participants will learn to identify entities\, define fields\, create relationships between data\, and avoid common design mistakes. Through guided exercises and real-world examples\, attendees will build a simple database schema and apply database design concepts to their own research projects. \nThis workshop is ideal for researchers planning to create a database\, manage structured information\, or prepare data for further analysis using digital humanities or data science methods. If you attended our online webinar\, this workshop is an ideal follow-on\, but you don’t need to have attended. \nThis workshop suits researchers and postgraduate students with little or no prior experience in database design. The session is a structured yet relaxed environment with plenty of 1-1 help and opportunities for experimentation. \nTo register\, please fill in this form to confirm your place by Wednesday\, 10th February. Places are not limited\, but we ask people to register so that we have an idea of numbers. We will send final invites after the 20th.
