Workshop at Volkswagenstiftung Themenwoche Digitale Kompetenzen in der Wissenschaft

DKZ.2R teamed up with another data literacy center QUADRIGA, NFDIxCS, and NFDI4DS, to host a workshop on the topic of “Research Data and Research Software Competencies from the Perspective of Computer and Data Science” at the Themenwoche Digitale Kompetenzen in der Wissenschaft of the Volkswagenstiftung. Together with a diverse group of 35 participants from different data-literacy initiatives we will explore intersections between projects, present successful educational formats, identify gaps in current educational offerings, and collaboratively create new formats and an overall didactic framework. We are very much looking forward to this workshop week which will happen from the 2nd to 4th of December 2024 at the Xplanatorium in Hannover Herrenhausen.

Data Cafe Cologne

We are happy to announce our very first Data Café which will take place on April 16th at the Mensa Zülpicher Straße in Cologne. We’ll be right next to the Coffee Bar!

the aim of the event is to provide informal consulting opportunities for students, PhD’s, and early PostDocs such as: quick questions on e.g. how to structure your files in a way it makes sense, second opinions on your statistical analysis or data visualization, or even a first chat regarding the possibility of using machine learning methods for your project.
