Practical Web Technologies for Social Scientists

This workshop will introduce the alphabet soup of technologies powering the modern web; TCP/IP, HTTP, HTML, XML, JSON, REST APIs, OAUTH, SSL, AWS, among others. Attendees will build up enough background knowledge to begin scraping data from the web. Python will be demonstrated, but the concepts are reasonably generic.

This Workshop will be offered via Zoom. If you’re registered, you’ll receive the Zoom invitation information the day before the Workshop.
