Visualizing Social Networks
In this project-based course, you will be given an opportunity to learn how to collect social network data from digital platforms and design social network graphs. Visualizations of social networks provide crucial insights into the cultural dynamics of online communities. The research skills which you can acquire during mini-research projects are invaluable to media studies and digital anthropology.
Projekti eesmärk
The overall aim of this course is to experiment with techniques of visualizing social networks and to understand how network visualizations can inform strategies for campaigns on digital platforms.
The main learning goals for project participants include:
