Week 6

Data Collection: desk research and online open data

This week Maaike noticed that Frank sits on a new wobbly chair, which is better for his back, but maybe not appropriate for video recordings 🙈. But let’s focus on this week’s instructions !

We hope you caught up with all the exercises and tasks. We have adjusted the general schedule a bit to give everybody some breathing space. There is a new exercise for you, and Laurens shares how he searches for and collects data on his dog, Rocca 🐶.

So here is our partly wobbly instructional video below:
