A hands-on workshop covering the basics of the Unix command line interface.
Knowledge of the Unix operating system is fundamental to the use of many popular bioinformatics command-line tools. Whether you choose to run your analyses locally or on a high-performance computing system, knowing your way around a command-line interface is highly valuable. This workshop will introduce you to Unix concepts by way of a series of hands-on exercises.
This workshop is designed for participants with little or no command-line knowledge.
Tools: Standard Unix commands, FileZilla
Topic overview:
Section 1: Getting started
Section 2: Exploring your current directory
Section 3: Making and changing directories
Section 4: Viewing and manipulating files
Section 5: Removing files and directories
Section 6: Searching files
Section 7: Putting it all together
Section 8: Transferring files

https://dresa.org.au/materials/the-living-book-of-digital-skills
*The Living Book of Digital Skills (You never knew you needed until now)* is a living, open source online guide to 'modern not-quite-technical computer skills' for researchers and the broader academic community.
A collaboration between Australia's Academic Research Network (AARNet) and the Council of Australian Librarians (CAUL), this book is the creation of the CAUL Digital Dexterity Champions and their communities.
**Contributing to the Digital Skills GitBook**
The Digital Skills GitBook is an open source project and like many projects on GitHub we welcome your contributions.
If you have knowledge or expertise on one of our [requested topics](https://aarnet.gitbook.io/digital-skills-gitbook-1/requested-articles), we would love you to write an article for the book. Please let us know what you'd like to write about via our [contributor form](https://github.com/AARNet/Digital-Skills-GitBook/issues/new?assignees=sarasrking&labels=contributors&template=contributor-form.yml&title=Contributor+form%3A+).
There are other ways to contribute too. For example, you might:
* have a great idea for a new topic to be included in one of our chapters (make a new page)
* notice some information that’s out-of-date or that could be explained better (edit a page)
* come across something in the GitBook that’s not working as it should be (submit an issue)

10 Reproducible Research things - Building Business Continuity
https://guereslib.github.io/ten-reproducible-research-things/
https://dresa.org.au/materials/9-reproducible-research-things-building-business-continuity
The idea that you can duplicate an experiment and get the same conclusion is the basis for all scientific discoveries. Reproducible research is data analysis that starts with the raw data and offers a transparent workflow to arrive at the same results and conclusions. However not all studies are replicable due to lack of information on the process. Therefore, reproducibility in research is extremely important.
Researchers genuinely want to make their research more reproducible, but sometimes don’t know where to start and often don’t have the available time to investigate or establish methods on how reproducible research can speed up every day work. We aim for the philosophy “Be better than you were yesterday”. Reproducibility is a process, and we highlight there is no expectation to go from beginner to expert in a single workshop. Instead, we offer some steps you can take towards the reproducibility path following our Steps to Reproducible Research self paced program.

Nowadays, more information created than our audience could possibly analyse on their own! A study by Stanford professor Chip Heath found that during the recall of speeches, 63% of people remember stories and how they made them feel, but only 5% remember a single statistic. So, you should convert your insights and discovery from data into stories to share with non-experts with a language they understand. But how?
This tutorial helps you construct stories that incite an emotional response and create meaning and understanding for the audience by applying data storytelling techniques.

This video shows how you can use the web app version of the [Trove Newspaper & Gazette Harvester](https://glam-workbench.net/trove-harvester/) to download large quantities of digitised newspaper articles from Trove. Just give it a search from the Trove web interface, and the harvester will save the metadata of all the articles from the search results in a CSV (spreadsheet) file for further analysis. You can also save the full text of every article, as well as copies of the articles as JPG images, and even PDFs.

This video demonstrates how to use the GLAM Workbench to visualise searches for digitised newspaper articles in Trove. Using the latest version of [QueryPic](https://glam-workbench.net/trove-newspapers/#querypic), we can explore the complete result set, showing how the number of matching articles changes over time. We can even compare queries to visualise changes in language or technology. It's a great way to start exploring the possibilities of GLAM data.
