The big picture on data analysis and choice of statistical software – Thursday 6th February 10.30-12.00

In this workshop, we delve into intriguing questions surrounding statistical data, exploring topics such as the treatment of raw data, the nuances between qualitative and quantitative analysis, and the unique aspects that make statistical data analysis stand out. Gain insights that go beyond the surface, enabling you to make informed decisions about the choice of statistical software that aligns seamlessly with your analytical needs. This session may help you decide which statistical software would best suit your project. 90 mins. Presented by John Xie, QCU.

Writing Amazing Abstracts – Wednesday 26 February 10.00-13.00.

Abstracts are high-stakes texts. They can make the difference between an editorial desk reject or your paper being sent out for review. They are freely available for anyone with an internet connection to read. And they may be all that someone reads of your work. So, getting them right is crucial. If you find writing abstracts easy, you’re not writing good abstracts. However, help is at hand! This workshop will: Look at a formula for the conceptual and written structure of abstracts; Explore examples of real abstracts; Consider how abstracts can be used as a thinking tool to help write good papers; Give participants opportunity to review others’ abstracts and get feedback on their own. Have an abstract ready to share with your peers. This must be no more than 250 words. This must be ready to upload during the workshop (details of how to do so will be provided on the day). If you don’t have an abstract (e.g. from a proposal or conference), write a new one or choose one that you have read in your field that you think was written well.  Ideal for those submitting papers for DocFest. Presented by – Nick Hopwood, University of Technology Sydney.

Don’t forget there are lots of great recorded sessions that you can view at any time HERE.
