Centre for Scholarly Communication

Join us on an exciting journey into the world of data with our introductory workshops! This session will introduce ggplot for data visualization

Ever found it challenging to answer the critical “So what” question in your research? Struggle no more!

Learn how to engage meaningfully in community research partnerships, in ways that promote equitable collaboration, trust and communication, and shared decision-making, while navigating challenges like misaligned goals, power imbalances, and inadequate resource allocation.

Whether you're gearing up for graduate school applications, navigating the academic realm, or preparing for the job market, this online workshop is your key to building a successful CV.

This workshop equips graduate and upper-level undergraduate students with insights on what to consider before signing a publisher's contract, ensuring seamless integration of these articles into their theses and dissertations.

Do you want to learn how to use copyrighted material in your research, and how to protect your own rights as an author? If so, this workshop is for you!

Whether you're on the path to graduate school, working in academia, or venturing into the academic job market, our online workshop will help you compose a compelling cover letter.

This workshop will introduce linear models (i.e., one-way ANOVAs), their assumptions, and limitations, in a format tailored towards visual and spatial learners.

This session will introduce participants to the foundational concepts of statistical inference, including population distributions and the process of random sampling. Attendees will learn how sampling distributions evolve towards normality as sample sizes increase and will visually explore the Central Limit Theorem.

By the end of the session, participants should be able to visualize and understand population distributions, illustrate random sampling processes, recognize the normalizing effect of larger samples on sampling distributions, and demonstrate the Central Limit Theorem visually.

This workshop will illustrate how to fit linear models in R, diagnose any issues with model assumption violations, and interpret linear model summaries, including model coefficients, degrees of freedom, standard error estimates, t statistics, F statistics, p-values, R2, statistical significance, adjusted R2.

By the end of this session, participants will be able to fit linear models in R and interpret model outputs, including the output of the summary() function in R.
