This site is designed as a companion to Griffith Library’s Research Data Capture workshops. It can also be treated as a standalone, self-paced tutorial for learning to use REDCap (Research Electronic Data Capture) a secure web application for building and managing online surveys and databases.

In this self-paced workshop you will learn steps to: 
- Build data sets: find where and how to gather textual data for your corpus or data set.  
- Prepare data for analysis: explore useful processes and tools to prepare and clean textual data for analysis
- Analyse data: identify different...
