Google Sheets for Project Management
Are you using spreadsheets for your projects to track data, tasks and timelines in Google Sheets? Join us for our "Google Sheets for Project Management" workshop, where we'll explore formulas, filters, conditional formatting, and collaborative tools that can help you accomplish your goals for project planning and tracking. Attendees are encouraged to bring their own spreadsheets but there will also be a sample data set and exercises. This workshop assumes a beginner familiarity with Google Sheets. Lessons will generally apply to working in Excel as well.

Intro to Augmented Reality (AR)
In this workshop, students will learn the fundamentals of augmented reality and how to deploy it. We will use 8thWall, a browser-based AR development platform, to build experiences that track to images, stick to real-world surfaces, and follow your face. No downloads or coding needed; just bring a smartphone or tablet, and leave with three shareable AR projects you can run instantly via QR code.

"Push-Button" Papers: Reproducible Workflows in R
This workshop takes participants from start to finish through a simple empirical research project. From file management, to data cleaning and analysis, to automatic table and figure generation, participants will learn best practices for writing clear, concise, and reproducible code. The workshop will be conducted primarily in R, but the general principles presented apply across all coding languages/software. We will also discuss incorporating Dropbox and Overleaf into your workflow, so that tables and figures generated by your code are automatically integrated into your LaTeX manuscript.
