Basic data cleaning with OpenRefine
Are you tired of spending endless hours fixing typos and inconsistent formats in your data? Are you frustrated with having to do the same cleaning on multiple spreadsheets?
OpenRefine might be the software you need. Participants will learn several powerful features in OpenRefine and learn to document processes to effortlessly apply the same steps to similar data.
This tool will lead to cleaner data with less oops and more woo-hoo. This is a beginner level workshop, and no prior experience is needed. Bring a Windows, Mac, or Linux computer to participate. Students can borrow a laptop through the library Tech Lending program. If you need assistance to fully participate in this workshop, or have an accessibility request, please contact the instructor Michelle Zhai in advance.
