Mobile devices are often used to access or store personal and private information—notes, photos, contacts, financial accounts, saved passwords, and more. Join us for a hands-on demo of how to properly secure and manage your mobile devices to protect your personal information. We’ll discuss what could possibly go wrong, what you can do about it, what you are responsible for, and where to get help.

We encourage advance registration, but drop-ins are welcome too! Bring your own device if you want, but that’s not required either; we can provide 1:1 tech consults or helpful how-to resources so you can DIY with confidence.

Design Web-Based Surveys With Survey123 For ArcGIS (May 8, 2019 1:00pm) https://events.umich.edu/event/62873 62873-15485950@events.umich.edu Event Begins: Wednesday, May 8, 2019 1:00pm
Location: Shapiro Library
Organized By: LSA Technology Services

Survey123 is a simple, form-centric data collection app, that allows users to design surveys, share, and analyze data all within the ArcGIS Online platform. Survey123 differs from other form-centric data collection apps in that collection of geographic data is a key element. It seamlessly integrates with Collector for ArcGIS, an interactive mobile mapping application, and surveys can be downloaded to work offline. One can design a simple survey using the intuitive web-based form builder, and implement it within minutes.

In this workshop we will look at the basic workflows for creating and administering a survey using the Survey123 for ArcGIS mobile app. We will also discuss best practices for survey design for the mobile environment.

Enriching Scholarship Sessions: Predict-Observe-Explain pedagogy in any classroom: a case study using the AVIDA-ED digital laboratory (May 8, 2019 1:00pm) https://events.umich.edu/event/63352 63352-15653095@events.umich.edu Event Begins: Wednesday, May 8, 2019 1:00pm
Location: Shapiro Library
Organized By: Ecology and Evolutionary Biology

The Predict-Observe-Explain strategy is not specific to evolution and is very powerful when teaching about the natural sciences. Anyone teaching about evolutionary concepts may be interested in this workshop, as the AVIDA-ED platform is best suited to teaching about evolution. “Evolution” can be broadly construed, including applications in computer science and cancer cell research.

AVIDA-ED (the platform): AVIDA is a research platform that is used by professional scientists to study evolution. The AVIDA-ED platform (http://avida-ed.msu.edu/) is the same as AVIDA, but the platform is simplified to make it accessible to undergraduates. The platform is used in many undergraduate laboratories and lectures (including UM Dearborn), as a way of doing inquiry-based instruction about evolution. It provides an instance of evolution, not a simulation. This is extremely powerful. Moreover, the evolution takes place quickly enough to be observed in a lecture period.

Location: Shapiro Library
Organized By: UROP - Undergraduate Research Opportunity Program

This workshop introduces UROP students to SPSS in 90 minutes. Specifically, this workshop briefly covers each of the following:
- Managing and importing your data (i.e., loading your data into SPSS)
- Compute new variables (e.g., compute mean scores across multiple variables, recode and label categorical variables)
- Visualize data (e.g., boxplots, scatterplots, histograms)
- Compute summary statistics (e.g., means, standard deviations, medians) and correlations
- Compare means with t-tests
-Analyze relationships among multiple variables with linear regression (i.e., like Y = mx + b but fancier)

Importantly, you'll leave with materials to review these skills on your own.
