This is a short workshop (a companion to the R session) providing some basics of Network Analysis for researchers interested in Higher and Post-secondary Education. The presentation provides an example of how to construct an adjacency matrix using a co-author network composed of faculty in the Center for the Study of Higher and Post-Secondary Education at the University of Michigan.
I share the materials from the workshop here as a starting point– if your interest in network analysis is sufficiently sparked, you might continue with the Social Network Analysis in R and SONIA labs created by the Stanford Network Analysis Group at Stanford.
