Learn Basic Text Analysis with Constellate In-Person
Text analysis is a quickly growing field focused on analyzing texts (potentially thousands or millions of texts) using code. This workshop will introduce you to Constellate, a text analysis tool that you have access to as a member of U of T. For those new to text analysis, Constellate offers a gentle introduction to using Python in a no-fuss browser-based tool. For more advanced users, Constellate’s customizable scripts and detailed documentation provide scaffolding for your research.
For more information about Constellate, including access instructions, see our guide to Constellate.
