1/n Want to learn about computational social science this summer? We are posting high-quality video lectures of ALL the material from the Summer Institutes in Computational Social Science (#SICSS2020) by @msalganik and I over the next few weeks! compsocialscience.github.io/summer-institu…
2/n These videos cover a range of different topics from ethics to text analysis, digital field experiments, mass collaboration and many other topics (only the first few days of material is up there now, but more will be added soon)

All lectures assume basic knowledge of R. If you don't yet know R, there are so many wonderful resources online to get you started, here is one of my favorites from @rstudio : education.rstudio.com
P.S. Stay tuned for more exciting announcements about #SICSS2020, including a big one coming up soon from @msalganik that will involve workshops with many of our amazing alumni!
And please join me in giving HUGE thanks to all of the organizations that made this possible @RussellSageFdn @ssrc_org @SloanFoundation @facebook and many others!
