In this session, participants will be introduced to copyright concepts as they apply to the writing and publication of their thesis on . This session will cover:

• Your copyright responsibilities when writing your thesis
• Considerations for using your own work
• Considerations for using third party materials (images, figures, etc.)

Connecting to the Webinar

This webinar will be hosted using Skype. There are two options to join the webinar:

You already know about the Matrix Method from Literature Review Part A and have completed one.  Now in Part B, learn to situate your research within the body of existing related scholarship.  Bring your completed matrix and your ideas for how best to organize and present the research so that it meshes with your own contribution to the field.

This workshop will provide tips and practical experience on how to write an annotated bibliography and how it can be used as part of the writing process for a literature review or thesis. Strategies for using RefWorks to assist in its creation will also be discussed. A RefWorks account and basic knowledge of/experience with RefWorks is expected. This workshop is targeted at upper-year undergraduate students and graduate students.

This session will provide a simple overview of copyright, and the implications it has in your teaching. By the end of this session you will be better prepared to:

• Use copyright protected works in the classroom, LEARN, or through Course Reserves, and
• Choose alternate options for using materials, if necessary

You may have heard of GIS, but what exactly is it, and more importantly, how can you use it in your own research and academic work?

This introductory workshop presents the basic concepts of GIS and will teach you the skills you need to find geospatial data, map it, and discover new dimensions of information.

By the end of the workshop, you will be able to:

Ever wanted to try Open Source GIS but didn’t know where to start?

This workshop builds on “Getting Started with ArcGIS” (a recommended prerequisite for those with no previous GIS experience but isn’t absolutely necessary.) It will go through the ins and outs of QGIS and also cover other alternative Open Source GIS platforms.

This workshop introduces users to a different environment to create maps with GIS.
By the end of the workshop, you will be able to:

Machine Learning is all over the news in the tech world. How can GIS users make use of this technology for their research and work?

This workshop focuses in on the GIS application of Machine Learning, including for raster analysis and how deep learning can aid in extracting vector features from imagery. GIS users and enthusiasts are invited to join us in learning about this exciting new application of data science.

By the end of this workshop, you will:

This workshop is a primer for working with computational hydrology software and, as such, assumes a good grounding in most GIS concepts of spatial and raster analysis. The tutorial is designed to get you comfortable with HEC RAS's specific requirements for creating a dynamic flood simulation.

By the end of the workshop, you will be able to:

Good research skills are imperative for successful entrepreneurs, and especially important for Problem Pitch competitors. Join , to learn how you can leverage your existing research skills to do effective market research. During this workshop Rachel will highlight the tools available through the Library that help give you a competitive advantage.
