課程概述

The course gives an introduction to the analysis of social media data with a particular focus on social networking analysis. In the course, students learn how to use the R programming language to collect, process and analyze digital trace data. The course focuses on practical examples that can also be used in data-driven journalism. The course starts with a general introduction to R. In a second block, students learn how to read data, perform statistical procedures, and visualize results in high-quality plots. In the third block, students learn how to collect data from Twitter or Facebook automatically via R. Students are specially prepared for the challenging work with texts (for example, regular expression). In a fourth block, the students plan their own project. At the end of the seminar, some state-of-the-art methods are presented in the form of an outlook.
