Practical Large Scale Content Analysis

IAs, content strategists, and UXers responsible for designing the digital experiences that support large content collections have long used spreadsheets to understand, refine, and revise content data. Most of us, however, have never had any formal training in how to effectively use spreadsheets as content analysis tools. This workshop helps participants move beyond using spreadsheets merely as glorified tables and gives them the tools they need to use them as the powerful and ubiquitous data manipulation engines they are.

Workshop Highlights

  • Understanding content as data
  • Content Data Grooming & Hygiene: Healthy data is useful data
  • Content Inventories: Introduction and basic technique
  • Content Audits: Introduction and basic technique
